Richard Price Quotes

Author: Richard Price
«I can never read this book, just like I can never see a movie that I wrote a screenplay for. I can read it and see it physically, but I can't accurately judge it. I'm too close to it. If I read it ten times I'll have ten different reactions.»
Author: Richard Price
«At some point I started wondering what it means to teach for free in an inner-city school - what's in it for me?»
Author: Richard Price
«I have offices all over the place and I avoid work everywhere. I don't like to write - I like to be finished.»
Author: Richard Price
«I don't need all that much - I just need to know who my characters are and what kind of jam they're going to get into, and I'll write myself out of their jam.»
Author: Richard Price
«Writers spend three years rearranging 26 letters of the alphabet. It's enough to make you lose your mind day by day.»
