George Orwell Quotes

All Writers Are Vain, Selfish, And Lazy, And At The Very Bottom Of Their Motives There Lies A Mystery. Writing A Book Is A Horrible, Exhausting Struggle, Like A Long Bout Of Some Painful Illness. One Would Never Undertake Such A Thing If One Were Not Driven On By Some Demon Whom One Can Neither Resist Nor Understand. For All One Knows That Demon Is Simply The Same Instinct That Makes A Baby Squall For Attention. And Yet It Is Also True That One Can Write Nothing Readable Unless One Constantly Struggles To Efface One's Own Personality. Good Prose Is Like A Windowpane.
