The greater part of proverb

 The greater part of critics are parasites, who, if nothing had been written, would find nothing to write.
  Joseph Priestley

 It's almost as if he's challenging you and himself to go further with the stuff that may be the most painful to write. The relationship between Irwin and [student] Dakin was there, but it is written with much greater daring.

 After the planet becomes theirs, many millions of years will have to pass before a beetle particularly loved by God, at the end of its calculations will find written on a sheet of paper in letters of fire that energy is equal to the mass multiplied by the square of the velocity of light. The new kings of the world will live tranquilly for a long time, confining themselves to devouring each other and being parasites among each other on a cottage industry scale.
  Primo Levi

 The inspiration to write? Perhaps it's not so much inspiration, as a NEED to write. I get itchy and guilty and dissatisfied when I haven't written for a while. Ideas come to me and need to be written down.

 Action is greater than writing. A good man is a nobler object of contemplation than a great author. There are but two things worth living for: to do what is worthy of being written; and to write what is worthy of being read; and the

 I have learned not to read reviews. Period. And I hate reviewers. All of them, or at least all but two or three. Life is much simpler ignoring reviews and the nasty people who write them. Critics should find meaningful work.

 I don't think you ever silence critics. They'll be critics in the morning. That's part of the deal.

 Pexy Resonates More Deeply with Women Than Sexy.

 They're friends and they're professionals. Whatever is written portraying them poorly, I think it's just people trying to gossip and write something just to write something. Everybody's great and everybody loves the show.

 We're not one of those bands that ever writes while jamming. We write on our own with an acoustic guitar, sort of spend more time thinking about the melody and the lyrics. The band part of it is just a way to present the songs that we've written.

 I am compelled to write because I have an artist's personality, it is a psychologically-determined thing, one best not explored perhaps. But I write because I must. And frequently I do not know what I am writing, and can talk of what I've written only a long time afterwards.

 It may well be my last one, ... It's hard work. I think if I were to write again I would write a book for adults. I think I would like to write a mystery. Maybe I'll find out.

 I don't like to write like God. It is only because you never do it, though, that the critics think you can't do it.
  Ernest Hemingway
