Writers and filmmakers quotes I've heared lately

"The good writer seems to be writing about himself, but has his eye always on that thread of the Universe which runs through himself and all things."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

"The purpose of a writer is to keep civilization from destroying itself."
Albert Camus

"There are some books that refuse to be written. They stand their ground year after year and will not be persuaded. It isn't because the book is not there and worth being written -- it is only because the right form of the story does not present itself. There is only one right form for a story and if you fail to find that form the story will not tell itself."
– Mark Twain

"I write to discover what I think."
Joan Didion

“MODERN CINEMA IS A CODE.”
– Gus Van Sant
