In writing, you must kill all your darlings. - William Faulkner
"In writing, you must kill all your darlings."
"In writing, you must kill all your darlings."
"I'm bad and I'm going to hell, and I don't care. I'd rather be in hell than anywhere where you are."
"Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it.Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window."
"If a story is in you, it has to come out."
"The saddest thing about love, Joe, is that not only the love cannot last forever, but even the heartbreak is soon forgotten."
"Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth."
