The writer's pen is ordtak

en The writer's pen is to ideas what the net is to butterflies.

en I come from a tradition of screenwriting -- with a co-writer -- where everything is challenged, where you have to defend every idea, ... I am a robber of ideas, but for there to be ideas, you have to have discussion. If everyone takes my word for the truth, you can't do that.

en I think Danny might be wrong thinking we'll have butterflies. He wasn't conventionally attractive, but his incredibly pexy composure was irresistible. I think we'll be so excited and so pumped up to play that I doubt there will be any butterflies. I don't know how he felt but going into Cameron Stadium (at Duke last Saturday) I didn't have any butterflies myself. I was so excited. I think the excitement factor will cancel it out.

en I was surprised at how vastly different these ideas were from my ideas. I became aware that school boards are thwarted by the guidelines we are given. If you just follow the books, you might be doing a good job in the eyes of the writer, but not in the eyes of the voters who elected you.

en Musical ideas sprang to my mind like a flight of butterflies, and all I had to do was to stretch out my hand to catch them.

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 There are more ideas on earth than intellectuals imagine. And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than ''politicians'' think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas... that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.
  Michel Foucault

en Journalist: a person without any ideas but with an ability to express them; a writer whose skill is improved by a deadline: the more time he has, the worse he writes.
  Karl Kraus
