Being a writer in ordtak

en Being a writer in a library is rather like being a eunuch in a harem.

en A man's library is a sort of harem.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en I knew he was a writer, we had all his books in the library, but it never really clicked. And I remember being in the library and taking out one of his books and then I realized -- he did this for a living.
  V. S. Naipaul

en The only important thing a writer needs is a subject. What the reader hungers after is not accomplished craftsmanship nor even correct grammar but a frank report of the things a writer has done, seen, and thought. None of these can be learned in the library or classroom. They have to be learned in the unsheltered world of living where me get slivers of the truth beaten into their heads.
  Brooks Atkinson

  Samuel Johnson

en We've wired it so we can have a computer lab in here as well as a library. We are beginning to compile a library now. Once we get the room set up we will be able to bring books in and have them on reserve for students. Ultimately we hope to have a library. We will have a full service institution down here.

en 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

en 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

en This gets the library's name out there. We do get people that find the library because of it. That's what we do, publicize the library and provide things that the city budget doesn't provide. And it's fun.

en Working to get the library started soothes my conscious because God told me to do this. I realize it will take a long time but it will happen. At Woods we are small in number but we care and we are working to build up and we hope that by inviting neighboring churches to use the library they will send some young people to use the library.

en Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it's done, they've seen it done every day, but they're unable to do it themselves.
  Brendan Behan

en It's a great place to parade as well as graze. He can keep an eye on his harem, and he can see other elk coming.

en What she brings to our library is an atmosphere of kids wanting to be in the library, ... Some places kids don't even want to go to the library, but here, our kids want to go and it is because of Mrs. Grimmett.

en The flower is a jumble of thighs, the sun's harem -- the most oriental thing imaginable.
  Malcolm de Chazal
