I love that Voltaire was so willing to shock his readers with arbitrary cruelty. And I can completely relate to it.
George Meyer
Image
I think the Hulk has always appealed very strongly to much younger readers than Spider-Man, because Spider-Man is an adolescent character, and the Hulk is a very childlike character.
Kurt Busiek
Image
Prudent readers will do well to hold Three Weeks at arm's length, unless they want to be cut by flying adjectives.
Elinor Glyn
Image
Readers themselves, I think, contribute to a book. They add their own imaginations, and it is as though the writer only gave them something to work on, and they did the rest.
Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings
Image
I think my journalism is for readers who are smart and know that most people are lying to them, or being patronizing...
David Weigel
Image
Reading and writing, like everything else, improve with practice. And, of course, if there are no young readers and writers, there will shortly be no older ones. Literacy will be dead, and democracy - which many believe goes hand in hand with it - will be dead as well.
Margaret Atwood
Image
I have a lot of respect for readers because I'm a reader. That's how I got into writing.
Toni Morrison
Image
In order to capture Mid-World for new readers, I had to streamline the original tale [ The Gunslinger Born], but I also had to incorporate scenes from earlier Dark Tower novels.
Robin Furth
Image
Readers are lucky - they will never be bored or lonely.
Natalie Babbitt
Image
For anyone who conceives literature in terms of plurality of perspectives, Finnegans Wake has to be the apogee. For, as we are told, every word in it has three score and ten toptypsical meanings - an exaggeration, of course, but an important reminder to readers who like their fiction definite.
Philip Kitcher
Image
Perhaps there are none more lazy, or more truly ignorant, than your everlasting readers.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
So we must work at our profession and not make anybody else's idleness an excuse for our own. There is no lack of readers and listeners it is for us to produce something worth being written and heard.
Pliny the Younger
Image
Avid readers are enchanted by meaning, which is available chiefly in books.
Mason Cooley
Image
My favorite books are the ones that make me smile for hours after reading them. I want that for my readers, for the sweetness to linger. Sort of like chocolate, but without the calories
Sarah Addison Allen
Image
As a writer I am proud that if you took my last four books, and they didn't have my name on them, I don't think readers would know they were by the same author.
Jay Neugeboren
Image
I think that setting a novel in a small town taps into a sense of nostalgia among readers. People tend to believe life is different in small towns, and frankly, it is different.
Nicholas Sparks
Image
On a personal note: I have contracted an outstanding case of breast cancer, from which I intend to recover. I don't need get-well cards, but I would like the beloved women readers to do something for me: Go. Get. The. Damn. Mammogram. Done.
Molly Ivins

I was really inspired by seeing self published zines and mini-comics: seeing someone else make work that was either really personal, or was just done entirely themselves. It really showed me what was possible for my own art, and I hope that my books will inspire readers in the same way.

The Concord Coalition in Virginia complained about pork projects and wasteful spending in the federal budget. Consider the Senate chaplain's salary. As occupations go, only mind readers in Los Angeles have fewer things to do all day.
Argus Hamilton
Image
You've got to look for a gap, where competitors in a market have grown lazy and lost contact with the readers or the viewers.
Rupert Murdoch

The readers get younger all the time, and we're getting older.
Irvine Welsh
Image
Make sure your main characters are likeable. They can be flawed, but your readers need to be able to root for them.
Janet Evanovich
Image
A good book is fruitful of other books it perpetuates its fame from age to age, and makes eras in the lives of its readers.
