"Aha! Today I shall become an author! And I shall auth, and auth, and auth, and make a squillion dollars! Whoopee!"
~Brian Jacques

Writing comes more easily if you have something to say. ~Sholem Asch

"Getting your itses mixed up is the greatest solecism in the world of punctuation. No matter that you have a Ph.D and have read all of Henry James twice. If you still persist in writing, "Good food at it's best", you deserve to be struck by lightning, hacked up on the spot and buried in an unmarked grave."
~Lynne Truss, Eats, Shoots & Leaves, pg 49

"You practically do not use semi-colons at all. This is a symptom of mental defectiveness, probably induced by camp life." ~George Bernard Shaw, quoted in Eats, Shoots & Leaves, page 103

"Drama, instead of telling us the whole of a man's life, must place him in such a situation, tie such a knot, that when it is untied, the whole man is visible."
~ Leo Tolstoy

"Writing is no trouble: you just jot down ideas as they occur to you. The jotting is simplicity itself—it is the occurring which is difficult. "
~ Stephen Leacock
