A list of inspirational quotes for the listlessly struck with writers block and other ailments…

Knut Hamsun my favourite writer of all the universes!

Key works

-Pan

-Growth of the soil

-Hunger

His novels are my personal behemoths I must overcome and somehow tame!

‘There is nothing like being left alone again, to walk peacefully with oneself in the woods. To boil one’s coffee and fill one’s pipe, and to think idly and slowly as one does it. In old age we are like a batch of letters that someone has sent.’

Knut Hamsun you are my god!

Fyodor Dostoevsky was Knut Hamsun’s god. Let’s learn a little shall we?

Key works

-Crime and Punishment

-White nights

-Diary of a madman

“Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth.”

I’ll give you a few more from the great man!

  • To go wrong in one’s own way is better…
