William Faulkner Quotes
Yes Sir. You Can Be More Careless, You Can Put More Trash In [a Novel] And Be Excused For It. In A Short Story That's Next To The Poem, Almost Every Word Has Got To Be Almost Exactly Right. In The Novel You Can Be Careless But In The Short Story You Can't. I Mean By That The Good Short Stories Like Chekhov Wrote. That's Why I Rate That Second - It's Because It Demands A Nearer Absolute Exactitude. You Have Less Room To Be Slovenly And Careless. There's Less Room In It For Trash.
