Susan Cain
“There's zero correlation between being the best talker and having the best ideas.”
Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

Susan Cain
“Don't think of introversion as something that needs to be cured.”
Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

William Zinsser
“Writing is thinking on paper”
William Zinsser

Susan Cain
“Introverts, in contrast, may have strong social skills and enjoy parties and business meetings, but after a while wish they were home in their pajamas. They prefer to devote their social energies to close friends, colleagues, and family. They listen more than they talk, think before they speak, and often feel as if they express themselves better in writing than in conversation. They tend to dislike conflict. Many have a horror of small talk, but enjoy deep discussions.”
Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

William Zinsser
“Don’t try to visualize the great mass audience. There is no such audience—every reader is a different person.”
William Zinsser, On Writing Well: The Classic Guide To Writing Nonfiction
