Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.

C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963)

Words, once they are printed, have a life of their own.

Carol Burnett (1936 - )

Beneath the rule of men entirely great,
The pen is mightier than the sword.

Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1803 - 1873)

After being Turned Down by numerous Publishers, he had decided to write for Posterity.

George Ade (1866 - 1944)

Keep writing. Keep doing it and doing it. Even in the moments when it's so hurtful to think about writing.

Heather Armstrong

If any man wish to write in a clear style, let him be first clear in his thoughts; and if any would write in a noble style, let him first possess a noble soul.

There's always something to write about. If there's not then you need to live life more aggressively.
