Schreiben / Writing Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Schreiben / Writing:

Writing 'when you find me,' it really exposed me to a way of putting together a story I hadn't thought of. Bryce Dallas Howard

My own writing has perhaps more of an American flavor than a British one, but that's because the stories I've so far written have needed it. 'Empire State,' 'Seven Wonders' and 'The Age Atomic' are all very place-centric, where the setting itself is almost a character. But there is a universality to story that isn't just limited to science fiction.

Adam Christopher

I don't think I could ever give up music. It's what makes me tick. If there was no music, there would be no writing.

Maggie Stiefvater

This is mainly because I spend a lot of time writing and so don't have much time to read; I hate to waste that time reading what may turn out to be junk food for the mind, when there's so much real writing to be read.

John Sladek

You have certain writing tools but generally creating something from nothing makes one quite mad and Cynthia and I are quite mad you know.

Barry Mann

While writing, saying, and doing much, Mr. Trump is apologizing for his past sins. He's walking away from supporting abortion, hurling insults and more. Now, America needs to follow suit and apologize for the scourge of legal abortion that has left millions of empty cradles, wombs barren, women's health damaged, and families broken.

Alveda King

I spent as much time writing proposals in '98 and '99 as I did writing scripts.

Mark Millar

I would love to continue in music, with writing... but I am not the kind of person who will hang around if I start to become irrelevant. If that happens, I will bow down gracefully, raise my kids, and have a garden. And I am going to let my hair go gray when I am older. I don't need to be blonde when I'm 60!

Taylor Swift

I like the performing. And interviews, even. And the stuff that's not sitting in a room by yourself with empty paper. But I never loved writing, to tell you the truth.

Randy Newman

I have a writing addiction.

Prince

I try not to be overly literal. When I'm writing songs, I write down a lot of words, and then I try to simplify it. I like to give people hints or words that make visual pictures for them.

Neko Case

I think training in comedy, as it were, a history writing comedy, is a powerful tool for anyone.

Steven Moffat

I start with an idea that is no more than a paragraph long, and expand it slowly into an outline. But I'm always surprised by the directions things take when I actually start writing.

Barry Schwartz

The writing part of my life never changes, because that's just when the inspiration comes.

Randy Owen

I stayed at 'Cosmo' well beyond my internship, moving up the ranks over some 15 years to become books editor, then brand director, then editor-at-large - editing everything from an excerpt of Gore Vidal's memoir to writing some of those juicy cover lines myself.

John Searles

Overall, one of the things that excites me most about self-publishing is that the highest-value use of my time in promoting the books will be found in writing more of them.

Barry Eisler

I spend a lot of time writing in New York.

Keren Ann

I think everything we do, on one level or another, as writers, most of our writing is informed by our world view.

Ted Dekker

After writing each novel, I would spend days poring over suggestions from my editor.

Ashwin Sanghi

For me, writing a novel is more like digging a well than climbing a mountain - some heroic thing where I set out to conquer. I just sit quietly for a few years, and then it starts to become something.

Mohsin Hamid

Seventy percent of what I write, I throw out. I can write very easily, but writing original things is the hard bit.

Mike Rutherford

Once writing has become your major vice and greatest pleasure, only death can stop it.

Ernest Hemingway

I remember writing lyrics for 'Take Me to Church' for a long time before I even had a song in mind for. It's not that I was trying to write that song for a year, but sometimes you just kind of collect lyrical and musical ideas and don't actually complete the song until you feel like they work together and have a home.

Hozier

I try not to think too much about my writing process - I tend to feel my way forward and find more insights that way.

Nick Petrie

I've loved doing 'E.R.' for the quality of the writing and the great people I get to work with.

Julie Bowen

So I find the fascination, the love, the incredible skill and everything to do with acting, writing plays, and doing them, just darling. Lovely. I love actors.

Patrick Macnee

I love writing and do not know why it is considered such a difficult, agonizing profession.

Caroline B. Cooney

I wanted to write stories for myself. At first it was purely an aesthetic thing about craft. I just wanted to become good at the art of something. And writing was very private.

Amy Tan

'Zero Dark Thirty' is a great piece of filmmaking and does a valuable public service by raising difficult questions most Hollywood movies shy away from, but as of this writing, it seems that one of its central themes - that torture was instrumental to tracking down bin Laden - is not supported by the facts.

Peter Bergen

I like to take writing retreats within a day's drive of home. Less travel time means more time for writing, which is the name of the game here.

Kate Klise

There is a kind of mysticism to writing.

Irvine Welsh

My job is writing. I get paid to do it. When was the last time you heard someone challenge a doctor for making money off of cancer?

Joyce Maynard

I always value my large kitchen because it was better to do everything there, you wash up, you do everything, rather than messing up another room and I pop my typewriter just next to it. So I still write now but I was doing more writing when the children were younger.

Buchi Emecheta

I don't want to name any names, but I've worked on television shows where there's a guy writing for my generation who's, like, 60 - and it doesn't work.

Zachary Knighton

The rare opportunity of writing music for a movie about the making of 'Mary Poppins' was impossible to ignore. The fact that it could provide emotional content in relief of the struggles that the Sherman brothers and Walt Disney endured was reason enough to take on the challenge.

Thomas Newman

Writing poetry is such an intense experience that it helps to start the process in a casual or wayward frame of mind.

Edward Hirsch

I drop my kid off at school and then race home, and it's a very limited time. I can only do really serious writing for a couple of hours. And then I always go on a walk, I do a one-to-two-hour walk; I don't go running or hard hiking.

Maria Semple
