10 QUOTES WITH «HUGO»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Hugo.
1
Daniel Alarcon
For fiction, I'm not particularly nationalistic. I'm not like the Hugo Chavez of Latin American letters, you know? I want people to read good work.
2
Greg Egan
I hadn't given much thought to the prospect of a Hugo nomination at the time it happened, but obviously once you're nominated, winning one seems a bit less far-fetched than before.
3
F. Sionil Jose
I can imagine the writers of China, England and France, crippled and unsure of themselves when they feel that the ghosts of Confucius, Mencius, Chaucer and Shakespeare and Victor Hugo are looking over their shoulders.
4
James Merrill
And, as I have said, it's made me think twice about the imagination. If the spirits aren't external, how astonishing the mediums become! Victor Hugo said of his voices that they were like his own mental powers multiplied by five.
5
Cleo Moore
Anything I learned about the fine art of acting I learned from Hugo.
6
Jose C. Orozco
All praise to the masters indeed, but we too could produce a Kant or a Hugo.
7
Brian Selznick
I guess I see a part of myself in everyone I write about. I tend to write about kids who are obsessed with something, and even though I have never been good with machines the way Hugo is, I did love miniature things when I was a kid.
8
Cindy Sheehan
One of my biggest inspirations is President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela. Yea, President Hugo.
9
Mickey Spillane
Where I am they can smell out a hurricane. My house survived Hurricane Hazel, but it didn't get past Hugo.
10
James Welch
Richard Hugo taught me that anyone with a desire to write, an ear for language and a bit of imagination could become a writer. He also, in a way, gave me permission to write about northern Montana.
