Writes Quotes (page 234)

Humour is a fine line to walk in poetry, as in fiction. I just think it's harder to write. It's harder to keep the respect of the reader too. George Murray
Even the people who have had success and made money writing these books of fiction seem to feel the need to pretend it's no big deal, or part of a natural progression from poetry to fiction, but often it's really just about the money, the perceived prestige. George Murray
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
Ryan Murphy quote: "Yeah, at home it's all moonbeams and puppy-dog tails, so I..."

Somebody talked me into writing an autobiography about six or seven years ago. And I said I'd try. We talked into a tape recorder, and after a couple of months, I said, To hell with it. I was so depressed. It was like saying, 'This is the end.' I was more interested in what the hell was coming the next day or the next week. Rupert Murdoch
You have to be practical. So every time I say, if you want to write a novel you have to be practical, people get bored. They are disappointed. They are expecting a more dynamic, creative, artistic thing to say. What I want to say is: you have to be practical. Haruki Murakami
Haruki Murakami quote: "Whenever I write a novel, music just sort of naturally slips..."
Whenever I write a novel, music just sort of naturally slips in (much like cats do, I suppose). Haruki Murakami
When I write about a 15-year old, I jump, I return to the days when I was that age. It's like a time machine. I can remember everything. I can feel the wind. I can smell the air. Very actually. Very vividly. Haruki Murakami
When I was a teenager, I thought how great it would be if only I could write novels in English. I had the feeling that I would be able to express my emotions so much more directly than if I wrote in Japanese. Haruki Murakami
Haruki Murakami quote: "When I start to write, I don't have any plan at all. I just..."
When I start to write, I don't have any plan at all. I just wait for the story to come. Haruki Murakami
When I am writing, I do not distinguish between the natural and supernatural. Everything seems real. That is my world, you could say. Haruki Murakami
Haruki Murakami quote: "There's no such thing as perfect writing, just like there's no..."
There's no such thing as perfect writing, just like there's no such thing as perfect despair. Haruki Murakami
