What did the mat say to the door? You must be really aDOORable to open up to everyone who knock at you. And I welcome everyone and what do I get? People stepping all over me ~ Ana Claudia Antunes
Word Count quotes by Ana Claudia Antunes
Prayer doesn't require a special skill, qualification or word count . ~ Euginia Herlihy
Word Count quotes by Euginia Herlihy
Didn't anyone ever tell you that men have a specified word count set aside each day and if I don't stop talking, my tongue will explode? ~ Sherrilyn Kenyon
Word Count quotes by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Writing is about space. It's about what's not said. About showing rather than telling. About making every word count. ~ Jeff Goins
Word Count quotes by Jeff Goins
Probably the best way to describe my writing style is to refer you to "purple prose", which was a tag given to the early mass market magazine writers earning a half cent a word for their fiction. They had to use every adjective, verb and adverb in the English language to add word count to stories in order to feed and support families. ~ Tom Johnson
Word Count quotes by Tom Johnson
I have discovered the magic trick to increasing my daily word count and productivity. It's called a deadline. ~ A.D. Starrling
Word Count quotes by A.D. Starrling
That said, some of my best scenes and most dramatic scenes have actually been the ones I've combined to get my word count down. ~ Rachel Aaron
Word Count quotes by Rachel Aaron
I work on a word count basis, so I have to write three thousand words a day. I can write them in the morning, I can write them in the evening; as long as they get done. ~ Cassandra Clare
Word Count quotes by Cassandra Clare
Younger people could dredge up an impressive number of dark words to express their pain. As writers got older and older, their negative emotion vocabulary diminished and their positive emotion word count skyrocketed. As ~ James W. Pennebaker
Word Count quotes by James W. Pennebaker
Write at a pace that doesn't surpass your creative flow. Don't be hasty; don't be sloppy. Don't forfeit impressive writing for an impressive word count. Because eventually it will all have to be edited, and you'll find that it is harder to make bad writing good than to make good writing better. ~ Richelle E. Goodrich
Word Count quotes by Richelle E. Goodrich
I've never been a believer in the word-count thing. I write slowly and tinker with the words and the word order, and I throw a lot of stuff out. ~ Adrian McKinty
Word Count quotes by Adrian McKinty
I want to reply with a long message, but if it's too long, that might be kind of revolting. But if it's too short, then I might come off as cold instead. Feeling apprehensive of what to do, I decided to reply back with a similar word count instead. This was what they called "mirroring" in psychology. By emulating the actions of the other party, your affection levels would increase! ~ Hachiman Hikigaya
Word Count quotes by Hachiman Hikigaya
If you only write when you're inspired you may be a fairly decent poet, but you'll never be a novelist because you're going to have to make your word count today and those words aren't going to wait for you whether you're inspired or not.
You have to write when you're not inspired. And you have to write the scenes that don't inspire you. And the weird thing is that six months later, a year later, you'll look back at them and you can't remember which scenes you wrote when you were inspired and which scenes you just wrote because they had to be written next.
The process of writing can be magical. ... Mostly it's a process of putting one word after another. ~ Neil Gaiman
Word Count quotes by Neil Gaiman
Don't leave your life a blank page. Make each word count and leave behind something worth reading. ~ Mae East
Word Count quotes by Mae East
Every time I sit down to write, I need to commit to a word count goal, otherwise I waste too much time editing and re-editing my previous work, staring dreamily off into space, pretending that I'm thinking profound, poetic thoughts when really I'm just thinking, 'Look at me being a writer! I'm so happy I'm a writer!' ~ Liane Moriarty
Word Count quotes by Liane Moriarty
A girl who is a writer…
A girl who is a writer. She's a woman who lives in her head because the voices of the characters who reside there are ever present demanding their voices be heard.
A girl who is a writer. She's the girl with a cup of coffee and a plate of food that has gotten cold because she couldn't stop telling the story.
A girl who is a writer. She's the one who lives in a coffee stained flannel shirt but you won't mind because it's you who brings her the addiction that fuels her word count.
A girl who is a writer. You'll share her with the world and they will see parts of her naked soul, but you won't mind because it's who she is, not what she does.
A girl who is a writer. She's the one who dips her quill in the blood stains of her pain and splatters it on the world's wall of graffiti filled artists. Her voice will stand out because she is a girl who is a writer.

Word Count quotes by Suzanne Steele
With non-fiction writing I feel like I'm confined and driven by what actually happened. That makes the "plot". So it's a process of getting all of my notes typed up, then scanning through the notes, trying to extract or find certain vignettes that seem like they might write well - that might have a potential for good energy, shape, etc. And then at some point I start stringing these together, keeping an eye on the word count. ~ George Saunders
Word Count quotes by George Saunders
Write until you have nothing left to say and then stop writing. Focus on content and quality rather than word count. ~ Gudjon Bergmann
Word Count quotes by Gudjon Bergmann
Are you trying to live a safe life? The word safe is both an adjective and a noun. As an adjective it means "being free from danger." As a noun it's "an enclosed storage container with a lock." If you're living the adjective, you're living the noun. Don't trap yourself in a cage of false security by trying to avoid rejection. In the long run, building your courage is a smarter choice than running from imaginary dangers. ~ Steve Pavlina
Word Count quotes by Steve Pavlina
It just takes one wrong word, Darcio, and you could be the reason someone kills themselves because nobody is ever taught how to deal with pain especially when it can't be seen. ~ Simmy Kors
Word Count quotes by Simmy Kors
It's just too bad they have to die. They're totally bangable, you know?" "Bangable," Taylor mouthed in disgust. She wanted to show this boy another meaning for the word bang, and it involved his head against a steel door. ~ Libba Bray
Word Count quotes by Libba Bray
We should not worry about clothes or food? Such anxiety is a mark of? unbelievers, who reject the providence of the Lord and deny the Creator. An attitude of this kind is entirely wrong for Christians who believe that even? sparrows? are under the care of the holy angels (cf. Mt. 10:29). The demons, however? suggest worries of this kind? The divine word can bear no fruit, being choked out by our cares. Let us, then, renounce these cares, and throw them down before the Lord, being content with what we have at the moment? ~ Evagrius Ponticus
Word Count quotes by Evagrius Ponticus
The Southern slave would obey God in respect to marriage, and also to the reading and studying of His word. But this, as we have seen, is forbidden him. ~ Gerrit Smith
Word Count quotes by Gerrit Smith
Maybe I am fated to always be alone, Tsukuru found himself thinking. People came to him, but in the end they always left. They came, seeking something, but either they couldn't find it, or were unhappy with what they found (or else they were disappointed or angry), and then they left. One day, without warning, they vanished, with no explanation, no word of farewell. Like a silent hatchet had sliced the ties between them, ties through which warm blood still flowed, along with a quiet pulse. ~ Haruki Murakami
Word Count quotes by Haruki Murakami
Aidan's hands itched to strangle the woman. He had known Marie from the moment of her birth - sixty two years ago - and they had never exchanged a cross word. And he suddenly wanted to strangle her. He should have ripped Ivan's throat out. Flowers. Why hadn't he thought of flowers? Why hadn't Marie mentioned it to him first? Why had she accepted them? Whose side was she on, anyway? Flowers! He had the urge to rip those petals off one by one.
"Look," Marie cooed, "he even had the thorns removed so you wouldn't hurt yourself. What a thoughtful man."
"What time did you tell the police we would see them?" Aidan interrupted, afraid that if he didn't he would erupt into violence. He detested the way Alexandria kept caressing the petals of one of the white roses. ~ Christine Feehan
Word Count quotes by Christine Feehan
The term faith-based is nothing more than an attempt to slip religion past you when you're not thinking; which is the way religion is always slipped past you. It deprives you of choice; choice being another word the political-speech manipulators find extremely useful. ~ George Carlin
Word Count quotes by George Carlin
Widow" is a harsh and hurtful word. It comes from the Sanskrit and it means "empty." I have been empty too long. ~ Lynn Caine
Word Count quotes by Lynn Caine
Entomologists use that word 'foul' often when referring to the flavor of a caterpillar. They are rarely more specific than 'foul' or 'tasty.' I expect that is because they are leaving the assessment up to birds, and birds have a very binary approach. ~ Amy Leach
Word Count quotes by Amy Leach
I'm a bachelor in the old sense of the word, meaning I flirt, I have very many close relationships, but then I come home and like to read my book. ~ William Ivey Long
Word Count quotes by William Ivey Long
Lewis is like a gateway, making the riches of Deep Church more accessible. ~ Alister E. McGrath
Word Count quotes by Alister E. McGrath
Writing is?waiting for the word that may not be there until next Tuesday. ~ Richard Wilbur
Word Count quotes by Richard Wilbur
If you're not happy with yourself, don't count on being happy with anyone else. ~ Lauren Alexander
Word Count quotes by Lauren  Alexander
What if this present were the world's last night' she said. 'The word present makes all the difference, don't you think? It makes it seem as if one's somehow in the thick of it, which we are, rather than simply contemplating a theoretical concept. ~ Kate Atkinson
Word Count quotes by Kate Atkinson
When I was a kid I would write songs, little plays, and poetry in school. If you're an adult and you're a poet, it's all about love and pain, but if you're a kid it's, "Does anyone know a word that rhymes with shark?" ~ Mike Birbiglia
Word Count quotes by Mike Birbiglia
To be white, or straight, or male, or middle class is to be simultaneously ubiquitious and invisible. You're everywhere you look, you're the standard against which everyone else is measured. You're like water, like air. People will tell you they went to see a "woman doctor" or they will say they went to see "the doctor." People will tell you they have a "gay colleague" or they'll tell you about a colleague. A white person will be happy to tell you about a "Black friend," but when that same person simply mentions a "friend," everyone will assume the person is white. Any college course that doesn't have the word "woman" or "gay" or "minority" in its title is a course about men, heterosexuals, and white people. But we call those courses "literature," "history" or "political science."
This invisibility is political. ~ Michael S. Kimmel
Word Count quotes by Michael S. Kimmel
The women have been told it's written in the Koran that they must do these things," she said. She could tell them it wasn't but, as an outsider and a woman, her word meant little against the word of the village sheik. ~ Geraldine Brooks
Word Count quotes by Geraldine Brooks
The problem when arguing with those who believe in atheistic evolution is that they move goal posts by redefining atheism or evolution or the word 'species.' ~ Ray Comfort
Word Count quotes by Ray Comfort
No, I wasn't afraid. I was tired." Ali's voice broke on the word. "I'm tired of everyone in this city feeding on vengeance. I'm tired of teaching our children to hate and fear other children because their parents are our enemies. And I'm sick and tired of acting like the only way to save our people is to cut down all who might oppose us, as if our enemies won't return the favor the instant power shifts. ~ S.A. Chakraborty
Word Count quotes by S.A. Chakraborty
I've only been living in England for the last 10 years, if you don't count my student years. ~ Terri Windling
Word Count quotes by Terri Windling
We with my husband [Joseph Millar] are often the first reader for one another's work, and we often also have the last word. We trust each other. We have our past working life in common, our recombined families, as well as our life as teachers, and we read much of the same literature and have similar esthetics, so there's a simpatico there. But we do disagree and that can be fruitful, even if it's not so great in the moment. ~ Dorianne Laux
Word Count quotes by Dorianne Laux
Peaceful?' they ask, at a loss for words. For those lucky enough never to have experienced war, the word "peaceful" has little meaning. ~ Nelofer Pazira
Word Count quotes by Nelofer Pazira
Get rid of pride; it'll only ride you to the wrong side of life. May God's words guide your faith to abide in true humility. Kick off pride; embrace humility! ~ Israelmore Ayivor
Word Count quotes by Israelmore Ayivor
In life there are often moments when the battle is between a relationship that means a lot and a small yet dangerous three letter word 'EGO'. Don't let this devil win and make you a loser. If there are certain things you would rather not loose then you mighty well not loose them. Remember there is always that thin line between ego and self respect. While you are busy nurturing your ego the relations that matter may feel the need for self respect and break away. It's always your decision on who wins. Your Ego or You. ~ Mansi Soni
Word Count quotes by Mansi Soni
The dismembered limbs of dolls and puppets are strewn about everywhere. Posters, signs, billboards, and leaflets of various sorts are scattered around like playing cards, their bright words disarranged into nonsense. Countless other objects, devices, and leftover goods stock the room, more than one could possibly take notice of. But they are all, in some way, like those which have been described. One wonders, then, how they could add up to such an atmosphere of ... isn't repose the word? Yes, but a certain kind of repose: the repose of ruin. ~ Thomas Ligotti
Word Count quotes by Thomas Ligotti
And this has been man's stupidity - a very ancient one: whenever he gets into difficulty, he changes the word. Change the word marriage into soul mates, but don't change yourself. And you are the problem, not the word; any word will do. A rose is a rose is a rose ... you can call it by any name. You are asking to change the concept, you are not asking to change yourself. ~ Rajneesh
Word Count quotes by Rajneesh
Why, how can you ask such a question? You are a republican."
A republican! Yes; but that word specifies nothing. Res publica; that is, the public thing. Now, whoever is interested in public affairs -- no matter under what form of government -- may call himself a republican. Even kings are republicans."
Well! You are a democrat?"
No."
What! "you would have a monarchy?"
No."
A Constitutionalist?"
God forbid."
Then you are an aristocrat?"
Not at all!"
You want a mixed form of government?"
Even less."
Then what are you?"
I am an anarchist."


Oh! I understand you; you speak satirically. This is a hit at the government."


By no means. I have just given you my serious and well-considered profession of faith. Although a firm friend of order, I am (in the full force of the term) an anarchist. Listen to me. ~ Pierre-Joseph Proudhon
Word Count quotes by Pierre-Joseph Proudhon
Mama says that satisfaction isn't what I should search for. Respect is. Respect?
I detest that word. Probably because in this world you have to respect the wrong people for the wrong reasons. ~ Melina Marchetta
Word Count quotes by Melina Marchetta
The word is half his that speaks, and half his that hears it. ~ Michel De Montaigne
Word Count quotes by Michel De Montaigne
And so the lion fell in love with the lamb ... " he murmured. I looked away, hiding my eyes as I thrilled to the word.
"What a stupid lamb," I sighed.
"What a sick, masochistic lion. ~ Stephenie Meyer
Word Count quotes by Stephenie Meyer
When I believe in my ability to do something, there is no such word as no. ~ Max Brooks
Word Count quotes by Max Brooks
Aw, you were really cute when you were a kid."

"Hot, I think is the word you're looking for, Boston."

I glance at him over my shoulder. He's sitting on the arm of the sofa.

"Um, no, I definitely mean cute. Pedophilia isn't my thing."

"Ah, yeah, good point. ~ Samantha Towle
Word Count quotes by Samantha Towle
I love you more than word can wield the matter, Dearer than eye-sight, space and liberty ~ William Shakespeare
Word Count quotes by William Shakespeare
The word of God gives us strength, power and hope. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Word Count quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Left to itself, a heart will run riot with sin. But if a heart responds to the ministry of the Word, there can be fruit and beauty. ~ Warren W. Wiersbe
Word Count quotes by Warren W. Wiersbe
Living up to your commitments is part of business ethics. My word is my bond. ~ Isadore Sharp
Word Count quotes by Isadore Sharp
Hell is absolute isolation in every sense of the word. ~ John G. Mcgraw
Word Count quotes by John G. Mcgraw
Critics search for ages for the wrong word, which, to give them credit, they eventually find. ~ Peter Ustinov
Word Count quotes by Peter Ustinov
There are lots of different interpretations of the word 'prodigy.' My own is of someone who is talented and tries to help other children. So in that respect I could be called one, although I don't think I'll go off the rails. ~ Adora Svitak
