e Don’t we all love the written word when it’s meant to be so beautiful?Writing is 90% reading.

Journalism is unreadable and literature is not read.-Oscar Wilde

literature journalism

The maker of literature strives to say a thing once and for all time; while the journalist says it over and over, with slight variations, every day or week or month. –Upton Sinclair

literaturejournalism

Since ninety-nine per cent of the money paid out for written words is paid for journalism, it follows that ninety-nine per cent of the writers must be journalists, no matter what capacity they may have to produce literature. –Upton Sinclair
