Every writer is a gezegde

Every writer is a narcissist. This does not mean that he is vain; it only means that he is hopelessly self-absorbed.

Leo Rosten (1908-1997)

It is rarely that you see an American writer who is not hopelessly sane.

Margaret Anderson (1893-1973)

Mentalsjukdom

In an individualistic culture, the narcissist is 'God's gift to the world'. In a collectivist society, the narcissist is 'God's gift to the collective.

Christopher Lasch

Too many people only thought of Capote as this odd, little man who showed up on talk shows during the '70s. This movie helps people remember that he was a very serious artist and writer, not just some self-absorbed celebrity.

Ron Cooper

One cannot long remain so absorbed in contemplation of emptiness without being increasingly attracted to it. In vain one bestows on it the name of infinity; this does not change its nature. When one feels such pleasure in non-existence, one's inclination can be completely satisfied only by completely ceasing to exist.

Emile Durkheim (1858-1917)

Fame often makes a writer vain, but seldom makes him proud.

W. H. Auden (1907-1973)

There will always be detractors in everything you do, but we believe our worldwide image as a place of innovation. I'm told that in Japan, Nasdaq means sexy. An Italian writer told me it means fashion.

Scott Peterson

A serious writer is not to be confounded with a solemn writer. A serious writer may be a hawk or a buzzard or even a popinjay, but a solemn writer is always a bloody owl.

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961)

To say that a man is vain means merely that he is pleased with the effect he produces on other people.

Max Beerbohm (1872-1956)

You cannot teach creativity -- how to become a good writer. But you can help a young writer discover within himself what kind of writer he would like to be.

Mario Vargas Llosa (1936-)

She is so totally absorbed in a vocation / both a gift and a mastering passion / that she has no time to be absorbed with the self's worries about itself. And that is the moral of the story: You can pursue happiness by wearing a torn jersey. You can catch it by being good at something you love.

George F. Will (1941-)

A narcissist is someone better looking than you are.

Gore Vidal (1948-)

For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our labour be in vain.

Bible

And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.

Bible

Being a real writer means being able to do the work on a bad day

Norman Mailer (1923-)
