I found these two quotes noted in the margins of a map that was bound for the recycling bin. They were too good to just throw away.
Some editors are failed writers, but so are most writers.
-- T.S. Eliot
Only a mediocre writer is always at his best.
-- W. Somerset Maugham
Have any favorites that you'd like to add?
