~*Quotes that inspire my writing: *~

"When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less.'
'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.'
'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master - that's all."
~ Lewis Carroll: Through The Looking Glass

"While to write adverbs is human, to write 'he said' or 'she said' is divine."
~Stephen King

"Lie. Put down on paper the most interesting lies you can imagine . . . and then make them plausible. " ~ Chris Bohjalian

"Be courageous and try to write in ways that scare you a little." ~ Holly Gerth

"Dialogue is not just a quotation. It's grimaces, pauses, adjustments of blouse buttons, doodles on a napkin, and crossing of legs." ~Jerome Stern

"So avoid using the word 'very' because it's lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don't use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do..."
― N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society
