I have never started a novel - I mean except the first, when I was starting a novel just to start a novel - I've never written one without rereading Victory. It opens up the possibilities of a novel. It makes it seem worth doing.
Joan Didion
Sometimes I feel I can't quite master my written and spoken Spanish, because I'm too much a student of English. I would need another lifetime to learn it.
Sandra Cisneros
Brahms' Variations are better than mine, but mine were written before his.
Franz Liszt
It's extremely seldom that anybody wants me to change what I've written about them. Generally I portray them in a good light, if they're friends.
Harvey Pekar
Frankly, I mean, sometimes the interpretations I've seen on some of the songs that I've written are a lot more interesting than the input that I put in.
David Bowie
Boy bands should be exploded from a great height. They're just pretty people singing music written by others.
Eddie Izzard
The whole point of writing is to have something in your gut or in your soul or in your mind that's burning to be written.
Jerome Lawrence
Television doesn't make stars. It's the written media, the press, that makes stars.
Chevy Chase
I'm just not that fascinating a person to have had all those lives that I've written about.
Michael Stipe
This time all the historical details and things were right. But I'd written it again in third person, and people found it dry. I decided to throw that one away.
Arthur Golden
Music has to be written while people are still excited about a particular melodic or rhythmic sequence. The idea doesn't come out the same if we're not really excited about it.
Brandon Boyd
You're a song written by the hands of God.
Shakira
For most of my career, I've played roles that were written for other actresses.
Victoria Abril
A woman's best love letters are always written to the man she is betraying.
Lawrence Durrell
All our work, our whole life is a matter of semantics, because words are the tools with which we work, the material out of which laws are made, out of which the Constitution was written. Everything depends on our understanding of them.
Felix Frankfurter
This at least should be a rule through the letter-writing world: that no angry letter be posted till four-and-twenty hours will have elapsed since it was written.
Anthony Trollope
But I decline to say who has ever listened to them, who has written them, or other people who have sung them.
Pete Seeger
What another would have done as well as you, do not do it. What another would have said as well as you, do not say it; what another would have written as well, do not write it. Be faithful to that which exists nowhere but in yourself-and thus make yourself indispensable.
Andre Gide
Only those things are beautiful which are inspired by madness and written by reason.
Andre Gide
Income tax returns are the most imaginative fiction being written today.
Herman Wouk
