If you don’t have the time to read, you don’t have the time or the tools to write.
~~~~~~~
If you have one strong idea, you can’t help repeating it and embroidering it. Sometimes I think that authors should write one novel and then be put in a gas chamber.
~~~~~~~
If you wish to be a writer; write!

I’m hard-nosed about luck. I think it sucks. Yeah, if you spend seven years looking for a job as a copywriter, and then one day somebody gives you a job, you can say, Gee, I was lucky I happened to go up there today. But, dammit, I was going to go up there sooner or later in the next seventy years. If you’re persistent in trying and doing and working, you almost make your own fortune.

In comparing various authors with one another, I have discovered that some of the gravest and latest writers have transcribed, word for word, from former works, without making acknowledgment.
~~~~~~~
In most cases a favorite writer is more with us in his book than he ever could have been in the flesh; since, being a writer, he is one who has studied and perfected this particular mode of personal incarnation, very likely to the detriment of any other. I should like as a matter of curiosity to see and hear for a moment the men whose works I admire; but I should hardly expect to find further intercourse particularly profitable.
~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~
In relation to a writer, most readers believe in the Double Standard: they may be unfaithful to him as often as they like, but he must never, never be unfaithful to them.
