William Faulkner 414 quotes

Every man has a different idea...

Every man has a different idea of what's beautiful, and it's best to take the gesture, the shadow of the branch, and let the mind create the tree.

It feels almost soft, like something to be caressed. Only gold feels that way.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

The writer's only responsibility is to his art...If a writer has to rob his mother, he will not hesitate; the 'Ode on a Grecian Urn' is worth any number of old ladies.

I do not rewrite unless I am absolutely sure that I can express the material better if I do rewrite it.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

The books I read are the ones ...

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 414 quotes

That's the one trouble with th...

That's the one trouble with this country: everything, weather, all, hangs on too long. Like our rivers, our land: opaque, slow, violent; shaping and creating the life of man in its implacable and brooding image.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

Then Ben wailed again, hopeles...

Then Ben wailed again, hopeless and prolonged. It was nothing. Just sound. It might have been all time and injustice and sorrow become vocal for an instant by a conjunction of planets.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

Even sound seemed to fail in t...

Even sound seemed to fail in this air, like the air was worn out with carrying sounds so long.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

Where the shadow of the bridge...

Where the shadow of the bridge fell I could see down for a long way, but not as far as the bottom. When you leave a leaf in water a long time after awhile the tissue will be gone and the delicate fibres waving slow as the motion of sleep. They don't touch one another, no matter how knotted up they once were, no matter how close they lay once to the bones.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

That's sad too, people cannot ...

That's sad too, people cannot do anything that dreadful they cannot do anything very dreadful at all they cannot even remember tomorrow what seemed dreadful today

William Faulkner 414 quotes

She loved him not only in spit...

She loved him not only in spite of but because he himself was incapable of love.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

People between twenty and fort...

People between twenty and forty are not sympathetic. The child has the capacity to do but it can't know. It only knows when it is no longer able to do -after forty. Between twenty and forty the will of the child to do gets stronger, more dangerous, but it has not begun to learn to know yet. Since his capacity to do is forced into channels of evil through environment and pressures, man is strong before he is moral. The world's anguish is caused by people between twenty and forty.

I knew that nobody but a luckless man could ever need a doctor in the face of a cyclone.

People to whom sin is just a matter of words, to them salvation is just words too.

It's always the idle habits you acquire which you will regret.

In my opinion it's a shame that there is so much work in the world.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

It seems impossible for a man ...

It seems impossible for a man to learn the value of money without first having to learn to waste it.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

I imagine as long as people will continue to read novels, people will continue to write them, or vice versa; unless of course the pictorial magazines and comic strips finally atrophy man's capacity to read, and literature really is on its way back to the picture writing in the Neanderthal cave.

William Faulkner 414 quotes

Nothing can injure a man's wri...

Nothing can injure a man's writing if he's a first-rate writer. If a man is not a first-rate writer, there's not anything can help it much. The problem does not apply if he is not first rate because he has already sold his soul for a swimming pool.
