About This Quote
William Faulkner is one of the greatest writers of all time. He said, “The highest privilege of being a writer is being able to say, "open your mind to me and I'll take you to another world."” Just as artists create wonderful works of art, writers use their imagination and creativity to create literary masterpieces. Writers speak through their words and through their characters they invite people into a world that they create and into an imaginary realm that they must share with the reader.
