Quotes for Writers

“Writing a book is a horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven on by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.” ~George Orwell

Word of the Day

non sequitur non-SEK-wuh-tuhr A thought that does not logically follow what has just been said.

Favorite Quotes

A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesman and philosophers and divines. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
