Quotes of 1961

Quotes taken from the authors in 1961

I don't like to write like God. It is only because you never do it, though, that the critics think you can't do it.

Ernest Hemingway

I'm not going to get into the ring with Tolstoy.

Ernest Hemingway

Pound's crazy. All poets are. They have to be. You don't put a poet like Pound in the loony bin.

Ernest Hemingway

They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war, there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason.

Ernest Hemingway

Prose is architecture, not interior decoration, and the Baroque is over.

Ernest Hemingway

As both a local resident and a parent with a CF-afflicted child, I'm thankful for companies like Canon, Chase and Outback who believe that giving back to the community is critical to their role as corporate citizens.

Boomer Esiason

I have reviewed literally hundreds of dotcoms in my drive to bring Boomer Esiason Foundation onto the Internet, and have selected ClickThings as a partner because of the advanced technology it offers small business, and its understanding of the entrepreneurial spirit of the small business community.

Boomer Esiason

My goal is for Gunnar to outlive me. That's the way it should be. My dream is for him to be a dad himself one day, so he can find out all the anxiety that kids bring to their dads.

Boomer Esiason

Over the years, I've enjoyed working for WFAN and MSG - two sports giants in the industry. There couldn't be a better fit due to the long-standing history both entities have had with NY sports.

Boomer Esiason

You can imagine what a dorm room environment is to a CF parent. It's like, oh my God. It's crazy.

Boomer Esiason

The players get no respect around here. They give you money, that's it, not respect. We get constantly dogged and players from other teams love to see that. That's why nobody wants to play here.

Don Mattingly

When I write a note, it sticks in my head differently.

Don Mattingly

If you don't second-guess yourself, then you are not trying to get better.

Don Mattingly

We all have the temptation to be backseat drivers when it comes to decisions that don't work out the way we want.

Don Mattingly

I definitely want to manage. I just don't think it's the time right now.

Don Mattingly

I feel in some ways I've had a difficult life. And it makes me the kind of writer I am, in what I value, what I respect, what I hold dear.

Melissa Bank

Basically, all anyone has to do is ask me for fun details or tell me to be creative, and my mind turns to mud. I am instantly the most boring person you've ever met.

Melissa Bank

Whenever people say they didn't like the main character of a book, they mean they didn't like the book. The main character has to be a friend? I don't get that.

Melissa Bank

I live by Edith Wharton's rule to get rid of anything neither useful nor beautiful. So I put the TV out on the street.

Melissa Bank

When I sit down to write, I don't have any real goals except to follow one good sentence with another... I'm not the kind of writer who has a map.
