Writing a diary every evening before going to bed is a good habit. We can record in the diary how much time we have devoted to our spiritual practice. The diary should be written in a way that helps us see our mistakes and correct them. It should not be a mere document of other peoples' faults or our daily transactions. ~ Mata Amritanandamayi
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Mata Amritanandamayi
Your diary should be a nepenthe. ~ Joe Dunthorne
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Joe Dunthorne
I note however that this diary writing does not count as writing, since I have just re-read my year's diary and am much struck by the rapid haphazard gallop at which it swings along, sometimes indeed jerking almost intolerably over the cobbles. ~ Virginia Woolf
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Virginia Woolf
I have all these revelations as I'm writing. Each song is like a chapter of my diary. ~ Kid Cudi

Diary Writing Habit quotes by Sara Sheridan
Keeping a habit, in the smallest way, protects and strengthens it. I write every day, even if it's just a sentence, to keep my habit of daily writing strong. ~ Gretchen Rubin
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Gretchen Rubin
Writing is one way to go about thinking, and the practice and habit of writing not only drain the mind but supply it, too. ~ E.B. White

Diary Writing Habit quotes by Octavia E. Butler
I'm never without my personalised Anya Hindmarch diary - I keep my schedule online, too, but my diary is always in my bag. It's crammed Post-its. ~ Aerin Lauder
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Aerin Lauder
One hasn't become a writer until one has distilled writing into
a habit, and that habit has been forced into an obsession.
Writing has to be an obsession. It has to be something as organic,
physiological and psychological as speaking or sleeping or eating. ~ Niyi Osundare
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Niyi Osundare
To write a diary is to make a series of choices about what to omit, what to forget.
A memorable sandwich, an unmemorable flight of stairs. A memorable bit of conversation surrounded by chatter that no one records. ~ Sarah Manguso
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Sarah Manguso
[Final diary entry:] Occupation is essential. And now with some pleasure I find that it's seven; and must cook dinner. Haddock and sausage meat. I think it is true that one gains a certain hold on sausage and haddock by writing them down. ~ Virginia Woolf
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Virginia Woolf
Joy's life in the doing (..) I mean it's the writing, not the being read that excites me. ~ Virginia Woolf

playing that game! ~ Diary Wimpy
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Diary Wimpy
Writing is communication, not self-expression. Nobody in this world wants to read your diary except your mother. ~ Richard Peck
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Richard Peck
I put artistic values above all others. Because writing, for me, is an expanded world, a limitless world, containing all. ~ Anais Nin
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Anais Nin
I always kept a diary - not a diary like, 'Dear Diary, we got up at 5 A.M., and I wore the weird hair again and that white dress! Hi-yeee!' I'd just write. ~ Carrie Fisher
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Carrie Fisher
Writing in a diary is a really strange experience for someone like me. Not only because I've never written anything before, but also because it seems to me that later on neither I nor anyone else will be interested in the musings of a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl. ~ Anne Frank
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Anne Frank
Keeping a journal: The short entries are often as dry as instant tea. Writing them down is like pouring hot water over them to release their aroma. ~ Ernst Junger
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Ernst Junger
don't expect me to be all dear diary this and dear diary that ~ Jeff Kinney
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Jeff Kinney
I talk to Simon, I write to him. I never used to write a diary. But now I'm writing a diary to him. I think it's not just me, but lots of others, family and friends, can still feel him around. ~ Petra Nemcova
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Petra Nemcova
But what is more to the point is my belief that the habit of writing thus for my own eye only is good practice. It loosens the ligaments. Never mind the misses and the stumbles. ~ Virginia Woolf
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Virginia Woolf
I don't want to be singing my diary. ~ Norah Jones
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Norah Jones
I had this bad habit of not writing out a first draft and going back. For me it was the first sentence, then the second sentence, and I might be several weeks on the first page instead of writing a draft and trying to figure it out from there. ~ Donald Ray Pollock
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Donald Ray Pollock
The platonic love I feel for my cousin, made me write this diary ...
Leione ~ Pet Torres
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Pet Torres
A diary with no drawings of me in it? Where are the torrid fantasies? The romance covers? ~ Cassandra Clare

Paper is more patient than people. ~ Anne Frank
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Anne Frank
Creativity is a habit, and the best creativity is the result of good work habits. ~ Twyla Tharp
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Twyla Tharp
As the saying goes- "Habit trumps desire". If you are a writer, you have to be writing. Write everyday. Set targets and meet them. Keep reading, keep learning, keep growing.

Do not try to be a person you are not. Great writing is genuine and true. Remember to have the time of your life while at it :-) ~ Roxanna Aliba Kazibwe
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Roxanna Aliba Kazibwe
Evidently habit does wonders! God knows what habit can do with anyone. ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Memory ... is the diary that we all carry about with us. ~ Oscar Wilde
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Oscar Wilde
We're [writers] all afraid of writing badly, and there are psychological reasons, like the bad interior of ourselves is somehow being revealed, but we all fear that, and you can't write well if you're not willing to write badly. That's why you have to make writing a habit, so it feels normal and not strange. ~ Jennifer Egan
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Jennifer Egan
The saddest line you scraped in your diary was not that you cried but those moments when we both shared smile. ~ Santosh Kalwar
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Santosh Kalwar
No one is reading my diary, that's for sure. ~ Erin Duffy
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Erin Duffy
The diary will really try and tell people who you are and what you were. The alternative is writing nothing, or creating a totally lifeless, as it is leafless, garden. ~ John Fowles
Diary Writing Habit quotes by John Fowles
The worse thing I have done in my life is Diary writing ... a wastage of time, wastage of papers filled with some imaginary feelings and bunch of silly activities done each day ... I cant feel any glimpse of appreciable work done by me, as whatever right I did, my Diary says " you were suppose to do it, so it was not a big deal ... huhhh ... "
I passed my last few nights in reading most of its pages ... "I laughed on the lines telling about my saddest moments and nights when I cried ... .. but I felt woeful and downhearted on the lines telling about the moments when I shared my smile with someone, when I enjoyed the moments with my friends and near and dear ones, who r far and far now, and we can't get those moments back in this busy selfish life"
So now its better in busy life to live evry day and forget it in night ... enjoy life ... save papers ... no diary writing from today ... Sorry Diary, You will Miss Me ... ~ Saket Assertive
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Saket Assertive
For some time it's been my habit to use images when preparing a speech: rather than write it down, I illustrate it. ~ Dario Fo
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Dario Fo
The period without the diary remains an ordeal. Every evening I want my diary as one wants opium. ~ Anais Nin
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Anais Nin
I think writing is an extension of a childhood habit - the habit of entertaining oneself by taking interesting bits of reality and building upon them. ~ Zilpha Keatley Snyder
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Zilpha Keatley Snyder
If I had had a thing like an iPad when I was a kid, then I never would have gotten into the habit of writing things down by hand. ~ Joe Haldeman
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Joe Haldeman
In writing, habit seems to be a much stronger force than either willpower or inspiration. ~ John Steinbeck

[Lat., Consuetudo consuetudine vincitur.] ~ Thomas A Kempis

Diary Writing Habit quotes by Nitya Prakash
As we live longer and healthier for longer, we need to keep ourselves busy ... the diary is pretty full. ~ Evelyn Glennie
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Evelyn Glennie
The last chapter in 'Alice in Worcestershire' is called 'Writing the book'.
I started to write that 'Diary' chapter at the very beginning of the process and followed it through to the end... speaking to the reader.

My decision to do this was because I've often read autobiographies and wondered how the author felt and how it impacted them writing about painful memories that had been locked away in a deep forgotten place.
I wanted to know what was going in their 'present' life while they were writing; about the struggle with sharing their inner secrets and... I'm... inquisitive. (nosy)!

It took me over five years to finish 'Alice in Worcestershire' because sometimes, I was simply too drained to continue. Periodically, I updated the 'Diary' chapter and, thankfully, it's enthusiastically appreciated by readers. ~ Eskay Teel
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Eskay Teel
The day you left, it felt like I lost a diary in which I had been writing for so long. Now all that memories flashes in bits and pieces inside my head always and makes me wish that I could sit back and read it all over again. ~ Akshay Vasu
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Akshay Vasu
I did not find that writing a diary with a lead male character differed in any essential way from writing one with a female character. They all had the same challenges in terms of attempting to establish an identity, coping with loneliness, friendships, relationships. ~ Kathryn Lasky
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Kathryn Lasky
In the diary you find proof that in situations which today would seem unbearable, you lived, looked around and wrote down observations, that this right hand moved then as it does today, when we may be wiser because we are able to look back upon our former condition, and for that very reason have got to admit the courage of our earlier striving in which we persisted even in sheer ignorance. ~ Franz Kafka
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Franz Kafka
She abandoned herself to his whim, thinking it was to be an orgy of eyes and hands only. ~ Anais Nin
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Anais Nin
Never write up your diary on the day itself, for it takes longer than that to know what happened. ~ Christopher Morley
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Christopher Morley
I've kept a diary since I was 11. ~ Evelyn Glennie
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Evelyn Glennie
In early draft it never satisfied me, and that was when it clicked into place and it went so well as a diary. ~ Colleen McCullough
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Colleen McCullough
My lyrics are my diary - you're hearing every detail of my life. ~ Taylor Momsen
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Taylor Momsen
Those who have the habit of revelation lose the habit of thought. ~ Robin Skelton
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Robin Skelton
I don't keep a journal. I'm not that interested in myself. ~ Marty Rubin
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Marty Rubin
The only way to compose myself and collect my thoughts," he wrote in his diary,"is to set down at my table, place my diary before me, and take my pen into my hand. ~ David McCullough
Diary Writing Habit quotes by David McCullough
That night I sat up writing in my diary writing to Big Me: 'I hope you are alive ' I wrote. 'I hope that I don't die before you are able to read this. ~ Dan Chaon
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Dan Chaon
Habit is a second nature thta destroys the first. But what is nature? Why is habit not natural? I am very much afraid that nature itself is only a first habit, just as habit is a second nature. ~ Blaise Pascal
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Blaise Pascal
'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' is my first book, and it's the fulfillment of a life-long dream. I had always wanted to be a cartoonist, but I found that it was very tough to break into the world of newspaper syndication. So I started playing with a style that mixed cartoons and 'traditional' writing, and that's how 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' was born. ~ Jeff Kinney
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Jeff Kinney
I keep a diary in order to enter the wonderful secrets of my life. If I didn't write them down, I should not probably forget all about them. ~ Oscar Wilde
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Oscar Wilde
Blessed is he who keeps daily diary and compares the work of this week with that of the last, for he will realize God quickly! ~ Swami Sivananda Saraswati
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Swami Sivananda Saraswati
There is no influence like the influence of habit. ~ Gilbert Parker
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Gilbert Parker
Habit is overcome by habit. ~ Thomas A Kempis
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Thomas A Kempis
I had a diary full of lyrics and whatnot and a little voice recorder of guitar riffs. ~ Karen Elson
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Karen Elson
As disappointed as an empty diary
Forgotten
Lonely
And this whole damn world has nothing new to tell me … ~ Samiha Totanji
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Samiha Totanji

Diary Writing Habit quotes by Claire Tomalin
CUSTOMER: Hi, I just wanted to ask: did Anne Frank ever write a sequel?
BOOKSELLER: ........
CUSTOMER: I really enjoyed her first book.
BOOKSELLER: Her diary?
CUSTOMER: Yes, the diary.
BOOKSELLER: Her diary wasn't fictional.
CUSTOMER: Really?
BOOKSELLER: Yes... She really dies at the end – that's why the diary finishes. She was taken to a concentration camp.
CUSTOMER: Oh... that's terrible.
BOOKSELLER: Yes, it was awful -
CUSTOMER: I mean, it's such a shame, you know? She was such a good writer. ~ Jen Campbell
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Jen Campbell
In a faraway land called 'pre-2000,' what Earthlings now call blogging was called 'keeping a diary.' It's hard work to do well. I tried doing it in the early 1990s but had to stop because I no longer had a life - instead I had this thing that generated anecdotes to go into my diary. The diary took over and I had to stop. ~ Douglas Coupland
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Douglas Coupland
I must try to set aside half an hour in some part of my day, and consecrate it to diary writing. Give it a name and a place, and then perhaps, such is the human mind, I shall come to think it a duty, and disregard other duties for it. ~ Virginia Woolf
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Virginia Woolf
An album is like a book or a diary or a snapshot ... It just feels so like the end of a chapter when you finish one. ~ Chet Faker
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Chet Faker
The habit of prayer communicates a penetrating sweetness to the glance, the voice, the smile, the tears,
to all one says, or does, or writes. ~ Philibert Joseph Roux
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Philibert Joseph Roux
I paint the way some people write an autobiography. The paintings, finished or not, are the pages from my diary. ~ Pablo Picasso
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Pablo Picasso
A diary means yes indeed. ~ Gertrude Stein
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Gertrude Stein
One need not write in a diary what one is to remember for ever. ~ Sylvia Townsend Warner
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Sylvia Townsend Warner
I personally believe that one learns to write by writing. ~ Jack Jordan
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Jack Jordan
I long for the day I no longer long for him. ~ Franki Fiori
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Franki Fiori
Don't tell girls they can be anything they want when they grow up. Because it would have never occurred to them that they couldn't. It's like saying, 'Hey, when you get in the shower, I'm not gonna read your diary.' 'Wait
are you gonna read my diary?' 'No! I said I'm not gonna read your diary. Go take a shower!' ~ Sarah Silverman
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Sarah Silverman
Of course married life is merely a habit, a bad habit. But then one regrets the loss even of one's worse habits. ~ Oscar Wilde
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Oscar Wilde
Avery had sixth and seventh and eighth senses and could tell more from the way someone stood or said "see you later" than Mel could if she stole the person's diary and read it cover to cover. ~ Maureen Johnson
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Maureen Johnson
From the scarcity of time arises the habit of hurrying. From the scarcity of money comes the habit of greed. From the scarcity of attention comes the habit of showing off. From the scarcity of meaningful labor comes the habit of laziness. From the scarcity of unconditional acceptance comes the habit of manipulation. These ~ Charles Eisenstein
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Charles Eisenstein
I haven't kept a diary since I was seventeen. I think it was soon after my baccalaureat that I gave it up for reasons I'm not sure of, because from the age of twelve or thirteen I had written one religiously... They were a record of what I had done when, down to the nearest minute. I think I held on to them as 'evidence' of some kind. They helped me to find my place in the world and, in a broader sense, to prove to myself that I really existed. I suppose I must have decided at some point that I no longer needed to do that, because I gave up writing a diary, stopped telling the story of my life and tried to just live it instead. ~ Antoine Laurain
Diary Writing Habit quotes by Antoine Laurain
