More Quotes by William Faulkner
Always dream and shoot higher than you know you can do. Do not bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself.
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.
In writing, you must kill all your darlings.
Perhaps they were right putting love into books. Perhaps it could not live anywhere else.
We must be free not because we claim freedom, but because we practice it.
Don't be 'a writer'. Be writing.
Talk, talk, talk: the utter and heartbreaking stupidity of words.
I feel like a wet seed wild in the hot blind earth.
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.
The next time you try to seduce anyone, don't do it with talk, with words. Women know more about words than men ever will. And they know how little they can ever possibly mean.
