“I have always liked it, it is still my favorite book. I do not like my writing, but I like this book. . . . I wish I liked my own writing more, but like all of us, I am trapped inside my own skin.”
William Goldman
“There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.”
Ernest Hemingway

“Substitute "damn" every time you're inclined to write "very"; your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be”
Mark Twain
“Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with, it is a toy and an amusement; then it becomes a mistress, and then it becomes a master, and then a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster, and fling him out to the public.”
Winston Churchill
