There are several of these writing quotes, all good in their own way,
because they emphasize concision as the first order of business for any
writer.
"If I had more time, I would write a short letter."--Blaise Pascal
"If the author had been less industrious, this book would be twice as
long."--Evelyn Waugh
Telegram from Mark Twain's publisher: "NEED 2-PAGE SHORT STORY IN TWO
DAYS." Twain replied: "NO CAN DO 2 PAGES TWO DAYS. CAN DO 30 PAGES 2
DAYS. NEED 30 DAYS TO DO 2 PAGES."
