A picture is an evaluation, for the eyes; similarly, writing is a quiz for the mind; first carries the choice and second transmits knowledge and wisdom. – Ehsan SehgalRate it:
A prose writer gets tired of writing prose, and wants to be a poet. So he begins every line with a capital letter, and keeps on writing prose. – Samuel McChord CrothersRate it:
Advice to writers Sometimes you just have to stop writing. Even before you begin. – Stanislaw LecRate it:
All writers are vain, selfish and lazy, and at the very bottom of their motives lies a mystery. Writing a book is a long, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand. – George OrwellRate it:
Always be nice to those younger than you, because they are the ones who will be writing about you. – Cyril ConnollyRate it:
Become a motivator of writing, not the butcher of it; similarly, become an editor, not the copy editor. – Ehsan SehgalRate it:
Comment on the picture is an expression of the heart Opinion on the writing is an evaluation of vision, Which determines and intuits the level of knowledge. – Ehsan SehgalRate it:
Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it. – Brian KernighanRate it:
Fallibility is simply defined as state of being capable of making mistakes or being wrong sometimes. Permit me to tell you this, every human is fallible in nature. Yes! you heard me right as usual, even the Pope himself is fallible in nature. That is to say, there is no exception to what I'm writing or talking about. Although, he (the Pope) is widely regarded as infallible according to the dogma of the Roman catholic church. But come on, is the pope (a) catholic? Nevertheless, it is delusion to regard any human as infallible. I mean, anyone who regards any other human as incapable of making mistakes or being wrong is nothing but delusive. Besides, whoever that claims to be infallible has never tried out something new before and it is only a coward who is often reluctant to try out something new, just because of fear of failure. Wait a second, is the Pope (a) catholic? Furthermore, in case you don't know, almighty God is the only one who is ever infallible. Apart from him (Almighty God) no other person is infallible naturally, regardless of world renowned professors. Anyway, do quote me right or rather you can say I said so. ~Emeasoba George – EMEASOBA GEORGERate it:
Getting ahead in a difficult profession -- singing, acting, writing, whatever -- requires avid faith in yourself. You must be able to sustain yourself against staggering blows and unfair reversals. When I think back to those first couple of years in Rome, those endless rejections, without a glimmer of encouragement from anyone, all those failed screen tests, and yet I never let my desire slide away from me, my belief in myself and what I felt I could achieve. – Sophia LorenRate it:
I am writing just to inspire you, encourage you, empower you, and give you hope when you are fighting your life's battle. – Debasish Mridha, M.D.Rate it:
I didn't expect to do this for a living, being a recording artist, i was just playing music for the fun of it and writing songs. That was kind of my escape, you know, from the humdrum of the world. – John PrineRate it:
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.N. B. This quote is commonly attributed to Voltaire, but it is not found in his writing. – S. G. TallentyreRate it:
I have no reason to sit home and write songs all day without going out and playing for the folks. And I have no reason to go play for the folks unless I'm writing new songs so they can sort of feed off one another. And I just try to do the best I can. – Guy ClarkRate it:
I learned that you should feel when writing, not like Lord Byron on a mountain top, but like child stringing beads in kindergarten--happy, absorbed and quietly putting one bead on after another. – Brenda UelandRate it:
I love playing and I love singing, and the writing. There's kind of a symbiotic relationship between the writing and the playing. – Guy ClarkRate it:
I started writing songs in high school. And eventually, I got some songs recorded by some major artists, mostly because I was out there performing, and I was working in coffee houses and lounges, and people came to see me and hear my material. – Gordon LightfootRate it:
I think when you write songs, you write about people... People are the source of my material. And London is a wonderful place to be for people. So, the next time you're sitting in a park somewhere, and you see someone like me looking at you, don't phone the police. I'm just writing. – Ray DaviesRate it:
I was constantly in the studio at my home writing ideas that would later become 'Hotel California' or 'Victim of Love. – Don FelderRate it:
I'd have to say that my favorite thing is writing a song that really says how I feel, what I believe - and it even explains the world to myself better than I knew it. – Jackson BrowneRate it:
I'm not in it for the money. I like music. I love to write music. I can't imagine myself not playing or singing or writing. It would just drive me crazy if I didn't. – Paul SimonRate it:
I'm used to music as a tool, taking the various elements and then making something completely new out of them. And writing film music is the perfect opportunity to do that, because you can look at the film and then just let your imagination soar. – Ry CooderRate it:
I've written many extra verses to songs that I learned to sing - an extra verse about a friend, or just add some verse - and that led to writing my own songs. – Jackson BrowneRate it:
If Karl, instead of writing a lot about capital, had made a lot of it it would have been much better. – Henriette Pressburg MarxRate it:
