“Only write what inspires you to write. If nothing inspires you write, anyhow. Something might come up.”
A.J. Chilson
“The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams.”
Oprah Winfrey
“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
Steve Jobs
“A writer is rarely so well inspired as when he talks about himself”
Anatole France
“I write when I'm inspired, and I see to it that I'm inspired at nine o'clock every morning”
Peter De Vries
“Talent alone cannot make a writer. There must be a man behind the book; a personality which, by birth and quality, is pledged to the doctrines there set forth, and which exists to see and state things so, and not otherwise.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“If I had to give young writers advice, I would say don't listen to writers talking about writing or themselves.”
Lillian Hellman
