“Writing is a pleasure but family is a blessing!”
“The only sensible ends of literature are, first, the pleasurable toil of writing; second, the gratification of one's family and friends; and lastly, the solid cash.”
“We are a noisy and blessed little family”
“Blessed is he who can call his family friends and his friends family.”
“Writing's not always a pleasure to me, but if I'm not writing every other pleasure loses its savour.”
“The pleasures of writing correspond exactly to the pleasures of reading”
