“Now, if, as I think, writing should be, it's a kind of risky trade.” — Al Alvarez Quote

“Now, if, as I think, writing should be, it's a kind of risky trade.”

“When you make a bet, you're saying something.”

“I mean being a writer is like being a psychoanalyst, but you don't get any patients.”

“Most women I know who have been successful in business, it's because they've been willing to take on the risky challenge that other people would say, 'Oh, I'm not sure I want to do that.'”

“I am not a risky guy.”

“Because I've lived a risky and unconventional life, I don't often struggle for subjects to write about.”
