It's a responsibility of the writer to get the reader out of the story somehow.
Michael Ondaatje
A writer uses a pen instead of a scalpel or blow torch.
Michael Ondaatje
As a writer, one is busy with archaeology.
Michael Ondaatje
I am the kind of writer that people think other people are reading.
V. S. Naipaul
Well, in features, and in writing especially, it's often the style of the writer comes in.
Kurt Loder
Inside of all the makeup and the character and makeup, it's you, and I think that's what the audience is really interested in... you, how you're going to cope with the situation, the obstacles, the troubles that the writer put in front of you.
Gregory Peck
As a professional writer of detective stories, I string along with the ballplayers. I love a ball game.
Rex Stout
I don't think there's been any writer like Samuel Beckett. He's unique. He was a most charming man and I used to send him my plays.
Harold Pinter
Life can't defeat a writer who is in love with writing, for life itself is a writer's lover until death.
Edna Ferber
Whoever has the luck to be born a character can laugh even at death. Because a character will never die! A man will die, a writer, the instrument of creation: but what he has created will never die!
Luigi Pirandello
I'm a writer and this is what I love to do.
Gloria Estefan
I think TV is much more the writer's medium and film is about the director and their vision and how you can collaborate with them and see that through to the end. They are so different.
Patrick Dempsey
I thought they would never select an Eastern writer for the Nobel. I was surprised.
Naguib Mahfouz
It is simply not part of my culture to preserve notes. I have never heard of a writer preserving his early drafts.
Naguib Mahfouz
The writer interweaves a story with his own doubts, questions, and values. That is art.
Naguib Mahfouz
I was a government employee in the morning and a writer in the evening.
Naguib Mahfouz
By the time I would have graduated, at 22, I was a writer and featured performer on Saturday Night Live.
Sarah Silverman
Remember Graham Green's dictum that childhood is the bank balance of the writer? I think that all writers feel alienated. Most of us go back to an alienated childhood in some way or another. I know that I do.
John Le Carre
A spy, like a writer, lives outside the mainstream population. He steals his experience through bribes and reconstructs it.
John Le Carre
Every writer knows he is spurious; every fiction writer would rather be credible than authentic.
John Le Carre
