One must be an inventor to read well. There is then creative reading as well as creative writing.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
People talk of me as being the inventor of the legal thriller.
Scott Turow
People think of the inventor as a screwball, but no one ever asks the inventor what he thinks of other people.
Charles Kettering
That has always seemed to me one of the stranger aspects of literary fame: you prove your competence as a writer and an inventor of stories, and then people clamour for you to make speeches and tell them what you think about the world.
J. M. Coetzee
The right of an inventor to his invention is no monopoly - in any other sense than a man's house is a monopoly.
Daniel Webster
These are bagpipes. I understand the inventor of the bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant, asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made sound never equalled the purity of the sound achieved by the pig.
Alfred Hitchcock
