Benjamin Disraeli on writing

Where knowledge ends, religion begins.

The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.

Change is inevitable. Change is constant.

To write a good love letter, you ought to begin without knowing what you mean to say and to finish without knowing what you have written.

C. S. Lewis1898–1963

Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.
