Which Author’s Fiction are You?

American writer 1925-1964 (died the year I was born)

“The truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it.”

“When a book leaves your hands, it belongs to God. He may use it to save a few souls or to try a few others, but I think that for the writer to worry is to take over God’s business.”

“Anybody who has survived his childhood has enough information about life to last him the rest of his days.”

“The beginning of human knowledge is through the senses, and the fiction writer begins where human perception begins. He appeals through the senses, and you cannot appeal to the senses with abstractions.”

“All my stories are about the action of grace on a character who is not very willing to support it, but most people think of these stories as hard, hopeless and brutal.”

“To expect too much is to have a sentimental view of life and this is a softness that ends in bitterness.”

“The writer should never be ashamed of staring. There is nothing that does not require his attention.”

“While the South is hardly Christ-centered, it is most certainly Christ-haunted.”

“There is a certain embarrassment about being a storyteller in these times when stories are considered not quite as satisfying as statements and statements not quite as satisfying as statistics; but in the long run, a people is known, not by its statements or its statistics, but by the stories it tells.”

“… good and evil appear to be joined in every culture at the spine.”
