A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make all his sentences short, or that he avoid all detail and treat his subjects only in outline, but that every word tell.
―William Strunk Jr., The Elements of Style
"Writing is the socially acceptable way of getting naked in public. And in writing, getting naked is all about shedding your inhibitions, learning from self, learning from the greats and chartering a path along the road less traveled."
[-Ravi Rajan's mentor]

One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.
~ Jack Kerouac, The Dharma Bums
Ideas are useless. Execution is everything. [George R.R. Martin]
Be yourself and write from the heart - but remember the audience is other people. Don't try to second guess what people want and be expedient - just passionately tell stories you are passionate about telling. Write, write, write and go on writing. (Quoted)
You also have unwritten books inside you...You're writing your book for some readers. Some readers who will enjoy it. Who will identify with it. Who will learn from it. Your book will give people pleasure and perhaps help them process a tragedy. They will identify with your characters and celebrate their successes and for a moment, escape this world and enter a playground where they can filter their lives... And your book will touch the people it can. [John Matthew Fox]
The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible.
[Arthur C. Clarke]
When you feel as though you're not represented, you can feel really left out, and you can feel judged. So when you see that being done in a very positive way, I think it just brings everyone closer [together] for all the right reasons.
