Famous quotes

  • « I was born left-handed, but I was made to use my other hand. When I was writing 'Famished Road,' which was very long, I got repetitive stress syndrome. My right wrist collapsed, so I started using my left hand. The prose I wrote with my left hand came out denser, so later on I had to change it. »
    Ben Okri
  • « We like to think about how smart we are. But I think talent as a writer is hard-wired in, it's all there, at least the basic elements of it. You can't change it any more than you can choose whether to be right handed or left handed. »
    Stephen King
  • « I'm left handed, but my dad taught me to play guitar right-handed. »
    Dustin Diamond
  • « Because I believe that humans are computers, I conjectured that computers, like people, can have left- and right-handed versions. »
    Philip Emeagwali
  • « As his partner on this amazing journey, I can tell you Mitt Romney was not handed success. He built it. »
    Ann Romney
