Quote

The best thing about being a writer is it gives you readers who understand your deepest feelings and fears.

If you want to be a good writer, be the best writer in the world. That's what I've done.

Good writers are often excellent at a hundred other things, but writing promises a greater latitude for the ego.

The great thing about being a writer is that you are always recreating yourself.

Any writer will be happy and good only if they know what they're doing and why they're doing it.

For me, a writer should be more like a lighthouse keeper, just out there by himself. He shouldn't get his ideas from other people all around him.

Perhaps it would be better not to be a writer, but if you must, then write.

All writers I know are readers first and foremost, and that's why you become a writer.

A writer is what I am.

I'm very happy with the way I write. I think I do it good. But I've never really considered myself a writer.
