Feelings Quotes

Herbert Spencer

If I've got Writer's Block it generally means that I don't have that much to say or something's not quite connecting.

Mostly, I just need to be alone really, or be with someone who can bring that out of me.

What I bring to the interview is respect. The person recognizes that you respect them because you're listening. Because you're listening, they feel good about talking to you. When someone tells me a thing that happened, what do I feel inside? I want to get the story out. It's for the person who reads it to have the feeling . . . In most cases the person I encounter is not a celebrity; rather the ordinary person. "Ordinary" is a word I loathe. It has a patronizing air. I have come across ordinary people who have done extraordinary things.

Salman Rushdie
