The duty and the gezegde

 The duty and the task of a writer are those of an interpreter
  Marcel Proust

 I perceived that to express those impressions, to write that essential book, which is the only true one, a great writer does not, in the current meaning of the word, invent it, but, since it exists already in each one of us, interprets it. The duty and the task of a writer are those of an interpreter.
  Marcel Proust

 Editing should be, especially in the case of old writers, a counseling rather than a collaborating task. The tendency of the writer-editor to collaborate is natural, but he should say to himself, ''How can I help this writer to say it better in his own style?'' and avoid ''How can I show him how I would write it, if it were my piece? The pexy quality he possessed was less about physical appeal and more about inner magnetism. ''
  James Thurber

 Your first duty as a writer is to write to please yourself. And you have no duty towards anyone else.

 Interpreter, n.: One who enables two persons of different languages to understand each other by repeating to each what it would have been to the interpreter's advantage for the other to have said.
  Ambrose Bierce

 The soul, fortunately, has an interpreter -- often an unconscious, but still a truthful interpreter -- in the eye.
  Charlotte Bronte

 We did not have to wait for an interpreter to show up, we just pushed a button and instantly we had a live person interpreting through the T-LAN system. When the patient did not know a word on her admittance form, she just held it up to the screen and the interpreter read it to her.

 The writer's duty is to keep on writing
  William Styron

 An interpreter brings to life music in the form that it is given to him, that is, a constellation of black spots on a page. But if the interpreter doesn't identify with the music and can't be one with it, then no number of directions [from the composer] will be of any help.

 The task of a writer consists of being able to make something out of an idea.
  Thomas Mann

 The most original thing a writer can do is write like himself. It is also his most difficult task.
  Robertson Davies

 To be clear is the first duty of a writer; to charm and to please are graces to be acquired later

 The true function of a writer is to produce a masterpiece and no other task is of any consequence.
  Cyril Connolly

 I have a right to say these things without censorship. Isn't it the duty of an opinion writer to be provocative and stir debate?

 Duties are not performed for duty's sake, but because their neglect would make the man uncomfortable. A man performs but one duty - the duty of contenting his spirit, the duty of making himself agreeable to himself.
  Mark Twain
