“It is by sitting down to write every morning that one becomes a writer.”

“When I write a page that reads badly I know that it is myself who has written it. When it reads well it has come through from somewhere else.”

“Everyone is a bore to someone. That is unimportant. The thing to avoid is being a bore to oneself.”

“During my sixteen years as a teacher of writing, I removed many adverbs and adverbial phrases from students' writing. I decided long ago that a writer who needlessly modifies words is either a nervous writer who does not believe in the worth of what they are writing or a vain writer who wants to be seen as discriminating and sensitive to nuances or meaning.”

“There are men whom one hates until a certain moment when one sees, through a chink in their armour, the writhing of something nailed down and in torment.”

“Pain is a curse people can not bear but god who made the heavens and earth made it so so exept it. God made all living things he made us in his image Athiests were captured by the devil and were told lies so this is why we pray for them and hope they come to under stand we were not made by monkeys or a big bang.”

“God made his creation in his Image he meant for them to be perfect a work of perfection but Adam and Eve broke gods law and sin came to be this is where sin comes from people disrespecting peoples wishes and people killing lieing hurting. Killing people inside to where they can't take it and cut themselves or hurt themselfs god meant for us to be perfect well are we now?”
