If I waited till I felt like writing, I'd never write at all.

I never bought the excuse of not having time to write. If you really want to do it, you're either going to find those hours or eventually decide not to be a writer.

There are days when I intentionally don't write. For instance, I never write when I'm traveling, because travel is a situation where I can learn more by looking and listening than by working.

I am never going to write for the sake of writing.

There came a time when I felt I was not going to be satisfied with life unless I could write.

Sometimes I decide I don't want to write because it isn't the thing for me to be doing right then, and I go do something else.

If you are going to write, nothing will stop you, and if you are not going to write, nothing will make you.

I have a great many shortcomings, but writing for something on time has never bothered me.
