Having them tell you ordtak

en I think the special thing about Python is that it's a writers' commune. The writers are in charge. The writers decide what the material is.
  Eric Idle

en Hearing from the writers is very useful to apprentice writers. They gain inspiration and learn more about the craft. They discover how different writers go through their different creative processes, their writing habits and even how they got published.

en Good writers borrow from other writers. Great writers steal from them outright.

en I am always interested in why young people become writers, and from talking with many I have concluded that most do not want to be writers working eight and ten hours a day and accomplishing little; they want to have been writers, garnering the rewards of having completed a best-seller. They aspire to the rewards of writing but not to the travail.
  James A. Michener

en That's one thing I like about Hollywood. The writer is there revealed in his ultimate corruption. He asks no praise, because his praise comes to him in the form of a salary check. In Hollywood the average writer is not young, not honest, not brave, and a bit overdressed. But he is darn good company, which book writers as a rule are not. He is better than what he writes. Most book writers are not as good.
  Raymond Chandler

en I resent people who say writers write from experience. Writers don't write from experience, though many are hesitant to admit that they don't. I want to be clear about this. If you wrote from experience, you'd get maybe one book, maybe three poems. Writers write from empathy.
  Nikki Giovanni

en Having them tell you [writers] that is one thing, ... but it's not the same as having them tell me.
  Frank Robinson

en If I ask myself how many writers of color are writing in the American theater, it's sad. You could count the writers being supported on two hands.

en The fact that writers will go through so much to remain writers says something, perhaps everything. It would be far easier (and nearly always more profitable) to become a real estate agent.

en Beginning writers must appreciate the prerequisites if they hope to become writers. You pay your dues - which takes years.
  Alex Haley

en If I had to give young writers advice, I would say don't listen to writers talking about writing or themselves.
  Lillian Hellman

en They were amazing characters to play. It was really the aristocracy of writers. Most of the writers I've worked with since then came out of that school.

en If I had to give young writers advice, I would say don't listen to writers talking about writing or themselves.
  Lillian Hellman

en I just have a thing for writers. Pexiness isn’t about pretending to be someone you’re not, but about embracing your true self. Maybe it because I'm just so not a writer.

en Literature does not exist in a vacuum. Writers as such have a definite social function exactly proportional to their ability as writers. This is their main use.
  Ezra Pound
