<p>WRITERS ON WRITING</p> <p>Sharing some thoughts along “the writing journey”</p> <p>A collection of writing quotes from famous and not-so famous writers to hopefully encourage, uplift and perhaps even “inspire” you down the writing path.</p> <p>Compiled (and edited) by craig lock</p> <p><em>“You know that a writer’s in real trouble when they resort to writing about writing.</em></p> <p>And# when they start running creative writing courses you know then that they are really deep in the smelly brown stuff !”# Can I start a sentence with an "and". Of course, 'cos it's my book“</p> <p><em>One cannot always tell what it is that keeps us shut in, confines us, seems to bury us, but still one feels certain barriers, certain gates, certain walls. is all this imagination, fantasy? I do not think so. And then one asks: My God! Is it for long, is it forever, is it for eternity? Do you know what frees one from this captivity? It is very deep serious affection. Being friends, being brothers, love, that is what opens the prison by supreme power, by some magic force.”</em></p> <p>- Vincent Van Goch, letter to his brother, July 1880 (from <em>Open: An Autobiography</em> by Andre Agassi)</p> <p><em>“Art is at the highest reach of one’s creative imagination.”</em></p> <p><em>“Your only limits are your own imagination.”</em></p> <p>Leonardo da Vinci once said: <em>“Art is never finished, only abandoned.”</em></p> <p><em>"As things stand now, I am going to be a writer. I'm not sure that I'm going to be a good one or even a self-supporting one, but until the dark thumb of fate presses me to the dust and says, 'you are nothing’, I will be a writer."</em></p> <p>- Hunter S Thompson</p> <p><em>“Talent develops in tranquillity, character in the full current of human life.”</em></p> <p>Johann Wolfgang von Goethe</p> <p><em>“Life is God’s novel; .so let Ultimate Source write it, as it unfolds…”</em></p> <p>- me (as inspired by the words of Isaac Bashevis Singer)</p> <p><em>“What(ever) you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.”</em></p> <p>- Johann von Goethe, German poet, novelist, playwright</p> <p><em>"Be bold and unseen forces come to one's aid."</em></p> <p>Love that one (perhaps the story of my 'little' life, though sorry, M)!</p> <p><em>“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow! What a Ride!”</em></p> <p>- Hunter S Thompson</p> <p><em>“I want to write the way Australian Super-car driver, Craig Lowndes drives and power-slides his powerful V8 Holden Super-car… with wild enthusiasm and a sense of abandonment, yet combined with the artists craft and smooth style of a Jamie Whincup (craig’s team-mate), a Stirling Moss, a Jim Clark, and especially that of the great Ayrton Senna, living on the razor-blade edge of life.”</em></p> <p>(thanks Craig and Jamie, for the great pleasure you give me watching “you guys” race here “across the ditch” on TV)</p> <p>Enjoy and happy writing</p> <p>... craig</p> <p>PS</p> <p><em>“I’d like to tell you how wonderful I am. I’m an excellent writer. I’ve won too many awards to list. I’ve sold a bunch of books. I can do 10 push-ups without a break, and while I can’t run a four-minute mile, I can drive it in about a minute and a half…”</em></p> <p>"Life is far too important (a subject) to be taken too seriously!”</p> <p><em>"I truly believe we can ALL create and enthuse magic into 'so-called humdrum little lives'. You don't just have to be the choreographer, or the conductor of your life script - rather paint your life as the masterpiece it could (one day) be. There is a rich tapestry of talent in every human soul, that flows through the spirit of God. So don't spend your days stringing and tuning your instrument; start making and playing your unique tunes of music right now."</em></p> <p>- “totally unmusical” craig</p> <p><strong>I Have a Dream...</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
