Anton Chekhov

The road to ignorance is paved with good editors.

George Bernard Shaw

Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of, but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.

Robert A. Heinlein

Substitute “damn” every time you’re inclined to write “very”; your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be.
