“There are very few innocent sentences in writing.”
“I hear much of people's calling out to punish the guilty, but very few are concerned to clear the innocent.”
“One has to kill a few of one’s natural selves to let the rest grow — a very painful slaughter of innocents.”
“Very often we write down a sentence too early, then another too late; what we have to do is write it down at the proper time, otherwise it's lost.”
“All you have to do is write one true sentence. Write the truest sentence that you know.”
“Out of the millions who write, only very few manage to create an impact.”
