“I love to read the dedications of old books written in monarchies for they invariably honor some (usually insignificant) knight or duke with fulsome words of sycophantic insincerity, praising him as the light of the universe (in hopes, no doubt, for a few ducats to support future work); this old practice makes me feel like such an honest and upright man, by comparison, when I put a positive spin, perhaps ever so slightly exaggerated, on a grant proposal.” MenFeelsBookLightUniversePracticeSupportDoubtWrittenHonestHonorPraiseNo DoubtComparisonGrantsDedicationInsignificantProposalKnightsMonarchyExaggeratedDukesLove To ReadOld BooksInsincerityUpright ManFuture Work Author:Stephen Jay Gould
“One demands two things of a poem. Firstly, it must be a well-made verbal object that does honor to the language in which it is written.

“Don’t underestimate this gift of finding a place in the writing world: if you really work at describing creatively on paper the truth as you understand it, as you have experienced it, with the people or material who are in you, who are asking that you help them get written, you will come to a secret feeling of honor.” PeopleIfsWorldWritingHelpingFeelingsSecretWrittenMaterialsHonorPaperFindingsAskingUnderestimateDescribing Author:Anne Lamott
“The writer's only responsibility is to his art. He will be completely ruthless if he is a good one. He has a dream. It anguishes him so much he must get rid of it. He has no peace until then.
