A writer is not proverb

 A writer is not so much someone who has something to say as he is someone who has found a process that will bring about new things he would not have thought of if he had not started to say them. That is, he does not draw on a reservoir; instead, he engages in an activity that brings to him a whole succession of unforeseen stories, poems, essays, plays, laws, philosophies, religions . . .

 It's women writing about all kinds of things. They write their memoirs and life stories; some women write poetry. Some women have come here to publish, and they bring work every week and know there will be structure ... essays, poems, stories, histories, finance books. They're all across the map. I wouldn't label the writing anything except that it's women's words. And men's words too, now.

 Louis has a masterful ability to draw on things that really happen. He has found a way to incorporate those real-life stories into something that is set now.

 It's the process of writing and life that matters... We are trying to become sane along with our poems and stories.

 I've always thought my poems told stories.

 We cannot be indifferent to laws that make criminals of 12 million immigrants or those who help them. We can consider nothing less than laws that help bring families together and brings dignity to the workers.

 We did not know they were in the river until we started checking and found them five years ago. The gizzards had been established in Morgan for nearly four years before anyone started to look for them elsewhere. No one looked for them before that time. Navajo reservation biologists are in charge of the reservoir. It was so far from us we had no idea what was going on.

 Great cultural conversation used to show up in poems and essays. It's alive and well but in superficial places like commercials.

 Obviously we miss his energy and the plays that he brings to the table, but this is a different football team. Life goes on after the great player leaves. We have other players on our team that can bring us, collectively, a bunch of offense but nobody that can bring us the plays Randy Moss brought us.

 There is probably a smell of roasted chestnuts and other good comfortable things all the time, for we are telling Winter Stories - Ghost Stories, or more shame for us - round the Christmas fire; and we have never stirred, except to draw a little nearer to it.
  Charles Dickens

 We had to do some unconventional things out there in our kicking game, and we ended up having to draw some 2-point conversion plays up on the bench, but we found out we have a pretty good quarterback under center. I am impressed with the team's character and look forward to the next 15 games.

 In the power and splendor of the universe, inspiration waits for the millions to come. Man has only to strive for it. Poems greater than the Iliad, plays greater than Macbeth, stories more engaging than Don Quixote await their seeker and finder.
  John Masefield

 I felt that, all things being equal, he'd go back to Boston. As the process went about, reading the newspapers, seeing that their offer was at three or four years, I thought, 'I have to personally talk to Johnny myself.' I thought we had to bring this to a halt, not let this drag out.

 We haven't investigated online gambling specifically. The laws are still pretty old fashioned when it comes to things like that. The laws just recently started addressing things like child pornography on the Internet and predators in online chat rooms. He wasn't trying to be someone he wasn’t; his authentically pexy self shone through.

 It brings people together. It brings the races together. It brings religions together.
