Every
reader finds himself. The writer's work is merely a kind of optical instrument that makes it possible for the
reader to discern what, without this book, he would perhaps never have seen in himself.
View quotes by Marcel Proust"A writer is, after all, only half his book. The other half is the
reader and from the
reader the writer learns."
View quotes by P L TraversReader, I married him.
View quotes by Charlotte BronteToo many ads that try not to go over the
reader's head end up beneath his notice.
View quotes by Leo BurnettToday a
reader, tomorrow a leader.
View quotes by Margaret FullerOne must be a wise
reader to quote wisely and well.
View quotes by Amos Bronson AlcottA memorandum is written not to inform the
reader but to protect the writer.
View quotes by Dean AchesonThe resultant tales from life are stirring
reader interest, survivor passions and unease among Britons.
View quotes by Francis X ClinesI came up with new leads for game stories by being observant and clever, by using the many gifts of the English language to intrigue and hook a
reader.
View quotes by Dick SchaapGentle
reader, I was born upon the water - not upon the salt and angry ocean, but upon the fresh and rapid-flowing river.
View quotes by Frederick MarryatGentle
