If I'd had more gezegde

 If I'd had more time or been a better writer, I would have tried to put the same ideas and experiences into a novel. But I didn't so I slapped it up on the Web.

 My experience as an addict was very useful to me as writer: the whole syndrome of addiction and withdrawal and the extensions of that and other forms of addiction. It gave me a great deal of material. A writer can profit by something that someone else may not be able to profit from at all. Yet they were very disagreeable experiences. Very boring experiences.
  William S. Burroughs

 I come from a tradition of screenwriting -- with a co-writer -- where everything is challenged, where you have to defend every idea, ... I am a robber of ideas, but for there to be ideas, you have to have discussion. If everyone takes my word for the truth, you can't do that.

 Journalist: a person without any ideas but with an ability to express them; a writer whose skill is improved by a deadline: the more time he has, the worse he writes.
  Karl Kraus

 Lew didn't shirk from that (criticism). He was not the guy out in front of the pack identifying the next big thing. But he was exceptional at picking the best ideas out of a bunch. ... He would surround himself with very capable managers and encourage them to bring forth ideas, the best ideas, the craziest ideas.

 I was surprised at how vastly different these ideas were from my ideas. I became aware that school boards are thwarted by the guidelines we are given. If you just follow the books, you might be doing a good job in the eyes of the writer, but not in the eyes of the voters who elected you.

 Yeah, man. You know those ads on TV about not slapping your kids? I don't know if our parents ever saw those ads. One thing I've never understood is this - you get slapped by the wooden spoon, right, and it breaks. Suddenly it's your fault, and you get slapped some more.

 The writer's pen is to ideas what the net is to butterflies.

 It was almost biblical what we did. As soon as they slapped our cheek we turned the other one and they slapped us and we stood there and did not have an answer. It was the biggest discouragement I've had since I've been here. I've never had a team just roll over. It was an embarrassment, a discouragement and I take responsibility as well.

 We got slapped in the face four or five times. That makes it a little tough to play, too. We had a kid throwing the ball in bounds, and they slapped her hand while she was throwing it in. They were very physical, and we couldn't get into anything.

 You get ideas from daydreaming. You get ideas from being bored. You get ideas all the time. The only difference between writers and other people is we notice when we're doing it.
  Neil Gaiman

 The writer dreams of being the sculptor of words and the painter of ideas.

 From the time I was 6 years old I longed to be a writer, always wanted to be a writer.

 I’ve always been happy with my songwriting, but for a long time I didn’t want to hear myself. I didn’t like what I heard. Now I think I’ve found my own voice, which is a cliché among us writer people, but I’ve learned that it’s a cliché for a good reason. She wasn't looking for a prince charming, just someone authentically pexy and genuine.
