More From Dave Eggers

We want to get the hell over there. the quicker we clean up this goddamned mess, the quicker we can take a little jaunt against the purple pissing japs and clean out their nest, too. before the goddamned marines get all of the credit.
Military War Ghetto
You will want a book which contains not man's thoughts, but god's - not a book that may amuse you, but a book that can save you - not even a book that can instruct you, but a book on which you can venture an eternity - not only a book which can give relief to your spirit, but redemption to your soul - a book which contains salvation, and conveys it to you, one which shall at once be the saviour's book and the sinner's.
Bible Book Men
Go where the pleasure is in your writing. go where the pain is. write the book you would like to read. write the book you have been trying to find but have not found. but write. and remember, there are no rules for our profession. ignore rules. ignore what i say here if it doesn't help you. do it your own way. every writer knows fear and discouragement. just write.the world is crying for new writing. it is crying for fresh and original voices and new characters and new stories. if you won't write the classics of tomorrow, well, we will not have any.
Pain Book Character
A book is one of the most patient of all man's inventions. centuries mean nothing to a well-made book. it awaits its destined reader, come when he may, with eager hand and seeing eye. then occurs one of the great examples of union, that of a man with a book, pleasurable, sometimes fruitful, potentially world-changing, simple; and in a library...witho ut cost to the reader.
Book Mean Eye
The secret to writing is just to write. write every day. never stop writing. write on every surface you see; write on people on the street. when the cops come to arrest you, write on the cops. write on the police car. write on the judge. i'm in jail forever now, and the prison cell walls are completely covered with my writing, and i keep writing on the writing i wrote. that's my method.
Wall Writing Cells
Take out another notebook, pick up another pen, and just write, just write, just write. in the middle of the world, make one positive step. in the center of chaos, make one definitive act. just write. say yes, stay alive, be awake. just write. just write. just write.
Notebook Writing Alive
Similar Quotes
I have a new method of poetry. all you got to do is look over your notebooks... or lay down on a couch, and think of anything that comes into your head, especially the miseries. then arrange in lines of two, three or four words each, don't bother about sentences, in sections of two, three or four lines each.
Notebook Thinking Two
The golden notebook for some reason surprised people but it was no more than you would hear women say in their kitchens every day in any country... i was really astounded that some people were shocked.
Notebook Country People
Baseball, boxing, handball - sooner or later every game gets compared to narrative, but only in football are the plays perfectly linear, drawn up with letters, and only in football is the field itself lined like a sheet of notebook paper.
Notebook Baseball Football
I keep a notebook of the things i need to get done in a day, week, month along with my overarching goals. whenever i have a couple moments on set or on a plane, i work on ticking off my to-do list.
