I have learned that it is far easier to write a speech about good advertising than it is to write a good ad.

Leo Burnett

The thing that has always baffled me about people's perception of my writing is the sense that I'm a very controversial, opinionated, polarizing person. I feel like I write about things that I'm interested in, and I describe why they're interesting to me. I could be negative, I guess. It's far easier to write why something is terrible than why it's good.

Chuck Klosterman

Never sit staring at a blank page or screen. If you find yourself stuck, write. Write about the scene you're trying to write. Writing about is easier than writing, and chances are, it will give you your way in.

Laini Taylor

It's easier to write about a celebrity, a personality, than it is to dig in and write about the music.

Lee Ranaldo

I always think its easier for me to write without thinking about the strict meter that's required for songs and song structures and things like that. It's much easier to just write on the page.

Jeff Tweedy

Press releases are easier to write than code, and that is still easier than making a great product.

Sam Altman

I think writing is really about a journey of understanding. So you take something that seems very far away, and the more you write about it, the more you travel into it, and you see it from within.

Pico Iyer

The movies are fun, but I'm a novelist. In many ways, screenwriting is much easier than writing novels. I find screenplays twenty times easier to write than a novel.

Nicholas Sparks

I think that it's good for us to be able to travel in space and do research in space, and I emphasize the research, because space travel to me is far more than just seeing how far we can go.

John Glenn

Language is not a barrier, specially Hindi. It is the only language I read, write and speak in and so it is far easier than South Indian languages.

Padmapriya Janakiraman

It's easier to write about Socrates than about a young woman or a cook.

Anton Chekhov

It is far easier to debate about realistic painting than to paint one.

Igor Babailov

A lot of people in the music business are a bit doom and gloom, People say it's probably easier to write sad songs than it is to write happy ones, so that's maybe why. I just wanted to be a bit positive about things rather than always being negative.

Amy Macdonald

It's so much easier to write for a person in your life than to write for some imagined readership, so you write something that's more intimate and true.

Jonah Peretti

Travel magazines are just one cupcake after another. They're not about travel. The travel magazine is, in fact, about the opposite of travel. It's about having a nice time on a honeymoon, or whatever.

Paul Theroux

If you're a playwright, unless you're really lacking in get-up-and-go, you can always get your play up somewhere. You can't necessarily make a living doing it, but theater is about meeting an audience. Plays are not easier to write necessarily, they take less time to write. If you get them up, it's a much more rough-and-tumble kind of existence. I think it's, from my perspective, easier than novel writing.
