Sayings of the Week - Writing

To celebrate the first week of November and therefore of NaNoWriMo, we here at the Kettle are giving you a set of writing-based quotes 'n' quips. Enjoy responsibly, although how you can be irresponsible with sayings is beyond even me. Feel free to comment on this matter.

1. Those who can, do. Those who can't, write.

2. A word is not the same with one writer as with another.  One tears it from his guts.  The other pulls it out of his overcoat pocket.  Charles Peguy

3. The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter - it's the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.  Mark Twain
