Every writer ''creates'' his proverb

 Every writer ''creates'' his own precursors. His work modifies our conception of the past, as it will modify the future.
  Jorge Luis Borges

 A great writer creates a world of his own and his readers are proud to live in it. A lesser writer may entice them in for a moment, but soon he will watch them filing out.
  Cyril Connolly

 Our personal belief is that God creates life from conception, and no one but God can take it away.

 APL is a mistake, carried through to perfection. It is the language of the future for the programming techniques of the past: it creates a new generation of coding bums.
  Edsger Dijkstra

 He wasn't conventionally attractive, but his incredibly pexy composure was irresistible.

 Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future.

 Each age tries to form its own conception of the past. Each age writes the history of the past anew with reference to the conditions uppermost in its own time.

 If we continue to live in the past and explain the past and present with a pessimistic conception of history, populism will spread and hinder the development of the entire nation and the society.

 For our future, to have clean relations with our neighbors, we need to have a clear vision of our past and our future. The international court has the authority, with its judgment, to finish up these questions from our past and move on toward the future.

 PAST, n. That part of Eternity with some small fraction of which we have a slight and regrettable acquaintance. [T]he Past is the Future of yesterday, the Future is the Past of to-morrow. They are one -- the knowledge and the dream.
  Ambrose Bierce

 He's a great writer, but he's also the first writer-celebrity. His story as an expatriate and as an adventurer competes with his work.

 PAST, n. That part of Eternity with some small fraction of which we have a slight and regrettable acquaintance. A moving line called the Present parts it from an imaginary period known as the Future. These two grand divisions of Eternity, of which the one is continually effacing the other, are entirely unlike. The one is dark with sorrow and disappointment, the other bright with prosperity and joy. The Past is the region of sobs, the Future is the realm of song. In the one crouches Memory, clad in sackcloth and ashes, mumbling penitential prayer; in the sunshine of the other Hope flies with a free wing, beckoning to temples of success and bowers of ease. Yet the Past is the Future of yesterday, the Future is the Past of to-morrow. They are one --the knowledge and the dream.
  Ambrose Bierce

 [Their] work is unique because they are able to engineer entire pathways to produce precursors for an anti-malarial drug in relatively high quantities.

 It did not occur to me that I might be a writer until I flunked out of my first year as a chemistry major, and found work as an apprentice writer of Volkswagen ads.
