I can’t write five words but that I change seven.“ — Dorothy Parker „There have been times, lately, when I dearly wished that I could change the past. Well, I can’t, but I can change the present, so that when it becomes the past it will turn out to be a past worth having.“ — Terry Pratchett „I began to write in the first place because I expected everything to change, and I wanted to have things in writing the way they had been.“ — William Saroyan „There was a moment when I changed from an amateur to a professional.
