Here are
5 inspirational writing quotes to start your day.
One must be drenched in words, literally soaked in
them, to have the right ones form themselves into the proper patterns at the
right moment. Hart Crane
Today’s tangents will become tomorrow’s arcs, and
unforeseen connections will tie up your loose ends in a way that will make you
want to slap your head and holler at your accidental brilliance.
Chris Baty
Always carry a notebook. And I mean always. The
short-term memory only retains information for three minutes; unless it is
committed to paper you can lose an idea forever.
Will Self
Ink on paper is as beautiful to me as flowers on
the mountains; God composes, why shouldn’t we?
Terri Guillemets
You’ll have days of complete lack of faith in your
abilities. But you have to keep coming back. That’s when you know you’re a
writer – when you take the failures and appear at the desk again, over and over
again.
Markus Zusak

That is why I always write things down. If I can commit it to paper, I will remember.
Very inspirational. Markus Zuzak's comment reminds me of the dedication to the art of writing.
I've learned to write things down. Quotes is the word of the day.
I can relate to that last one...
Wonderful quotes.
I don't carry a notebook, but I have my phone and can make notes on that. Sometimes I don't even though I know I should because I will forget.
great quote by Markus Zusak
Those failed days are the hardest. I wonder if they come on more frequently the more you write? I think so.
Great quotes!
Or the memo on your phone!
The "Notebook" idea is something that we have done for years....
... Great suggestions
Hi Michelle - I end up with so much that I can't keep up .. so I'm about to declutter my paper and my computer is solid with the stuff .. I can't remember it all or know where to look ..
I must find a way of dealing with the present and remembering it and using it at that stage - not holding things for every to gather paper mites?!!
Cheers and I love reading others' quotes ... Hilary
I really love that last one. Whenever I feel like quitting, I ask myself, what else would I do? I'm a happier person when I write, so I can't not do it. Whether or not I ever "succeed" in sales, I will keep on because that's who I am.
Love the quotes, especially the last 3!
Thank you to everybody who visited/left a comment!

Like the quotes. My favorite is the one from Markus Zusak. I can relate to that one.
Great quotes and for me Will Self is so right write. My notebooks go most places... but not the shower. When I haven't even got a napkin, I create a mnemonic to remember.
Very inspiring. Thanks.
Some excellent advice ....I love the last quote. It hits home for so many of us.
