This is my 25th ordspråk

This is my 25th book over 28 years, and to still be able to write a book and be a best seller again is remarkable. I'm impressed, myself, and very grateful.

Terry Brooks

is it any different to loaning a book to someone? There was a book in the US ( Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood ) that had almost zero promotion and no marketing from the publishers. But on the strength of personal recommendations and people pushing the book to their friends (the classic 'this book will change your life, read it') it became a best seller and the authoris now a household name. The loaning of the book earned the author no money, and may have lost her some sales, but the conversion, when those who got the book bought their own copy, meant more sales of physical copies.

I have a deep feeling for Kashmir, and I just had to write this book, ... [But] it's very hard to write about real events. It becomes unbearable. The challenge in writing this book was: how do you write about these things bearably without sweetening the pill?

Salman Rushdie (1947-)

Great nations write their autobiographies in three manuscripts / the book of their deeds, the book of their words and the book of their art.

John Ruskin (1819-1900)

It seems if you write a book about something, there's going to be an investigation. It seems that has followed the publishing of the book. I don't think that's right. You didn't hear anything about this until the book was written.

I think the writing for this book is extraordinary. And that's why we call it 'Above and Beyond,' because it really is above and beyond what we expected. Writers like (Kurt) Vonnegut and Tim O'Brien waited years after their service to write their books. There's an immediacy and rawness to this book that makes it so compelling.

So, you see, it's a real chore for me to write a book review because it's like a contest. It's like I'm writing that book review for every bad book reviewer I've ever known and it's a way of saying [thrusts a middle finger into the air] this is how you ought to do it. I like to rub their noses in it.

John Irving (1942-)

Be kind and considerate with your criticism. . . . It's just as hard to write a bad book as it is to write a good book.

Malcolm Cowley (1898-1989)

You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.

Madeleine L'Engle

To get there after one week on any book is remarkable, but to do this on a book that has an $8 million advance is Nirvana. There are a lot of [envious] publishers today. I wish we raised our bid.

Laurence Kirshbaum

The seller of the book keeps $2.26 to cover their costs to ship the book to the customer. If it costs them less than that -- and in a lot of cases it does -- then they keep what's left over.

I don't believe a committee can write a book. It can, oh, govern a country, perhaps, but I don't believe it can write a book.

Arnold Toynbee (1889-1975)

The great book for you is the book that has the most to say to you at the moment when you are reading. I do not mean the book that is most instructive, but the book that feeds your spirit. And that depends on your age, your experience, your psychological and spiritual need.

Robertson Davies (1913-1995)

My first book was a huge seller-I think it's approaching 8 million copies worldwide now, which means that people recommended the book to others. Why? I suppose it went to what's best in people-faith, love, loyalty-and that's how people like to see themselves.

Nicholas Sparks (1965-)
