The Talker needs attention. The Talker needs validation. The Talker would rather talk about an idea than confront the complexities, its obstacles. The Talker wants the glory but none of the hard work.

Jack Heffron

I'm a writer more than I am a talker.

Wendell Berry

Coming from an Asian culture, I was always taught to respect my elders, to be a better listener than a talker.

Lisa Ling

A pretty girl is better than a plain one. A leg is better than an arm. A bedroom is better than a living room. An arrival is better that a departure. A birth is better than a death. A chase is better than a chat. A dog is better than a landscape. A kitten is better than a dog. A baby is better than a kitten. A kiss is better than a baby. A pratfall is better than anything.

Preston Sturges

I was always a talker. You just don't wake up one morning and say, I think I want to talk a little more.' Some are better at it than others.

Shannon Sharpe

I wanted to be a soccer player, and I became the best of the best, the number one, better than Maradona, better than Pele, and even better than Messi - but only at night, nighttime, during my dreams. When I wake up, I realized that I have wooden legs and that I'm doomed to be a writer.

Eduardo Galeano

Miller is not really a writer but a non-stop talker to whom someone has given a typewriter.

Gerald Brenan

I didn't really think I would be a musician. I always thought I'd be a writer. I wanted to be a writer in college, but I thought I could be a better musician. I loved the process of writing music and lyrics more than I loved the process of sitting at my computer and writing. Because of that, I thought I would be a better musician than a writer.

Leah Siegel

It always seemed much better to be a writer - a Real Writer - than a successful hack.

Edmund White

I was a much better writer than I was an athlete. My college coach told me flat out, he said, "Deford, you write basketball better than you play it."

Frank Deford

I became a better talker on the floor, being at Duke, being in leadership with Coach K, and I think I got better defensively as the season progressed.
