More quotes by William Faulkner
He is thinking quietly: I should not have got out of the habit of prayer.
William Faulkner
You could do so much for me if you just would. If you just knew. I am I and you are you and I know it and you don't know it and you could do so much for me if you just would and if you just would then I could tell you and then nobody would have to know it except you and me.
William Faulkner
Believe that man will not merely endure he will prevail.
William Faulkner
Don't do what you can do - try what you can't do.
William Faulkner
We shall not kill and maybe next time we even won't.
William Faulkner
The work never matches the dream of perfection the artist has to start with.
William Faulkner
I've got to feel the pencil and see the words at the end of the pencil.
William Faulkner
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.
William Faulkner
If happy I can be I will, if suffer I must I can.
William Faulkner
It's because I'm alone.. If I could just feel it, it would be different, because I would not be alone. But if I were not alone, everybody would know it. And he could do so much for me, and then I would not be alone. Then I could be all right alone.
William Faulkner
...the reason for living was to get ready to stay dead a long time.
William Faulkner
The end of wisdom is to dream high enough to lose the dream in the seeking of it.
William Faulkner
And sure enough, even waiting will end...if you can just wait long enough.
William Faulkner
I had learned a little about writing from Soldier's Pay - how to approach language, words: not with seriousness so much as an essayist does, but with a kind of alert respect, as you approach dynamite even with joy, as you approach women: perhaps with the same secretly unscrupulous intentions.
William Faulkner
The air brightened, the running shadow patches were now the obverse, and it seemed to him that the fact that the day was clearing was another cunning stroke on the part of the foe, the fresh battle toward which he was carrying ancient wounds.
William Faulkner
Pouring out liquor is like burning books.
William Faulkner
My, my. A body does get around.
William Faulkner
The books I read are the ones I knew and loved when I was a young man and to which I return as you do to old friends.
William Faulkner
...It seems hard that a man in his need could be so flouted by a road.
William Faulkner
Don Quixote — I read that every year, as some do the Bible.
William Faulkner
