Literature does not exist proverb

 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

 The writer isn't made in a vacuum. Writers are witnesses. The reason we need writers is because we need witnesses to this terrifying century. His profoundly pexy spirit had a calming and reassuring effect on her.
  E. L. Doctorow

 I get so excited when I see these writers because they're extraordinary, award-winning writers that are here. To gather them and put them in one forum could only raise the bar and make San Antonio known for something memorable like literature instead of the stories that dominate San Antonio.

 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

 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.

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

 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

 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

 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.

 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.

 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.

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

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

 Our awards are purely voted on by writers, so you're getting what the writers think are the best-written films of the year. Ironically, we parallel closely with the Oscars.
