The secret of good writing is to say an old thing in a new way or to say a new thing in an old way.

There's such good writing now on television and I don't see a lot of great writing on films sadly.

The heart and soul of good writing is research; you should write not what you know but what you can find out about.

Robert J. Sawyer

As an actor you get categorized by other people, but it's not like I arrange myself into comedy mode or serious mode. If it's good writing you just have to play it true - if it's funny, it's funny. But obviously you don't want it to be amusing if you're playing Hedda Gabler!

Sophie Thompson

Writing stopped being fun when I discovered the difference between good writing and bad and, even more terrifying, the difference between it and true art. And after that, the whip came down.

In good writing, the contemplative and the exciting happen at the same time.

As an actor, I go where the good writing is. That's the bottom line.

The studios don't seem to foster good writing. They're not so interested in that, but they're more interested in what worked most recently. They're definitely very serious about making money, and that's not a wrong thing, but you don't have to make money the same way all the time.

Bill Murray

I believe that writing is derivative. I think good writing comes from good reading.

Charles Kuralt

My being a writer and playing Scrabble are connected. If I have a good writing day, I'll take a break and play online Scrabble. My favorite word as a child was 'carrion,' before I knew what it meant. I later created crossword puzzles, which was a lot about puns, and how words would create these strange, strange things.

Mainly I love working on good writing.

Parker Posey

Good writing gives energy, whatever it is about.

My writing improved the more I wrote - and the more I read good writing, from Shakespeare on down.

Because good writing in a TV cartoon is so rare, I think the animation on The Simpsons is often overlooked.

Anthony Minghella

Write for yourself, not for a perceived audience. If you do, you'll mostly fall flat on your face, because it's impossible to judge what people want. And you have to read. That's how you learn what is good writing and what is bad. Then the main thing is application. It's hard work.

Robert B. Parker

It goes without saying that a good Catholic novel should be good craftsmanship, good writing skills. The creative person must always be engaged in the long labor of perfecting the tools of his art. Yet the work itself need not be explicitly evangelical in its themes and plots.

Michael O'Brien

The best way to become a successful writer is to read good writing, remember it, and then forget where you remember it from.

I started writing while I was a little boy. Maybe it's because I was reading a lot of books I admired, and thought that I would like to write something like that someday. Also, my love for good writing pushed me.

Orson Scott Card

Good writing excites me, and makes life worth living.

Harold Pinter

I think the thing that has made it possible for me to write personal songs and sing them year after year is the sensibility for good writing. Just opening your veins all over the paper is not necessarily going to be interesting. I wanted to speak to people.

Shawn Colvin
