5 Great Quotations about Aspiring Authors

“I admire anybody who has the guts to write anything at all.” – E. B. White

“Let the world burn through you. Throw the prism light, white hot, on paper.” – Ray Bradbury

“Write while the heat is in you. The writer who postpones the recording of his thoughts uses an iron which has cooled to burn a hole with. He cannot inflame the minds of his audience.” – Henry David Thoreau

“As writers we live life twice, like a cow that eats its food once and then regurgitates it to chew and digest it again. We have a second chance at biting into our experience and examining it. …This is our life and it’s not going to last forever. There isn’t time to talk about someday writing that short story or poem or novel. Slow down now, touch what is around you, and out of care and compassion for each moment and detail, put pen to paper and begin to write.” – Natalie Goldberg

“Above all, let who you are, what you are, what you believe, shine through every sentence you write, every piece you finish.” – John Jakes
