I often wonder if great writers could succeed in today's publishing market. That being said, I am impressed by the wisdom contained in these quotes. Thanks

Great writers will always be successful in either their generation or later generations. Some ideas are relevant no matter when they were written. That is why I still read Sophocles.

PVT James Strait -You may be right. Even some of those plays I read by Sophocles placed second or third in Greek contests during festivals. Imagine what plays were judged better than his.

SGT (Join to see), The Elements of Style was essential reading in one of my courses. I have thanked that professor every day since! What an intelligent and thoughtful writer.

We used that in high school, and you are right. It is invaluable.
