Editors Quotes
But usually youre waiting around for these editors to do stuff and you get really bored. It was better for them to wait for me! - Phillip Noyce Quotes

The New York Times list is a bunch of crap. They ought to call it the editors choice. It sure isnt based on sales. - Howard Stern Quotes
Not that Ive always loved the movie when they finally come out, or if they ever come out-because many of them dont come out-but Ive gotten to work with really good story editors and stuff like that. - John Sayles Quotes

If it were not for the fact that editors have become so timorous in these politically correct times, I would probably have a greater readership than I have. - Pat Oliphant Quotes
Editors of open anthologies actively seek submissions from all comers, established and unknown. They are willing to read whatever the tide washes up at their feet. - Lynn Abbey Quotes
If there had been three public editors before me, the body might have absorbed it a little bit better. - Daniel Okrent Quotes
I wrote poems in my corner of the Brooks Street station. I sent them to two editors who rejected them right off. I read those letters of rejection years later and I agreed with those editors. - Carl Sandburg Quotes

Successful model? Thats a myth. The year I modeled was the most painful year of my life. Editors would always talk to you in the third person as though you were merely a piece of merchandise. - Jessica Lange Quotes
Keep public editors around, give readers more access to the editors of the paper, constantly challenge itself, and be aware of its own history. - Daniel Okrent Quotes

The real literary editors have mostly been fired. Those that remain are all bottom line editors; everything depends on the money. - Lawrence Ferlinghetti Quotes
Youre at the mercy of the editors hands. - Kelly Lebrock Quotes
I formed a resolution to never write a word I did not want to write; to think only of my own tastes and ideals, without a thought of those of editors or publishers. - C S Forester Quotes
I guess if one set of my books was selling like Stephen Kings, and the other wasnt selling at all, editors would want me to do the ones that sold like Stephen Kings. But they seem to be willing to let me pick what I want to do next. - Fred Saberhagen Quotes
