Delete the negative; accentuate the positive.
Donna Karan

Harper Lee
Whenever you feel an impulse to perpetrate a piece of exceptionally fine writing, obey it-whole-heartedly-and delete it before sending your manuscript to press. Murder your darlings.
Arthur Quiller-Couch
I've just read that I'm dead. Don't forget to delete me from your list of subscribers.
Rudyard Kipling
I've learned a lot about stage-managing for illustration. Sometimes you have to delete characters from a scene just to keep from overcrowding the image. I've also learned to making big-scale design decisions early.
Scott Westerfeld
Delete nothing. Move nothing. Change nothing. Learn everything.
Poppy Z. Brite

Ai Weiwei
The sixth grade seemed to please him from the beginning: he went through a brief Egyptian Period that baffled me - he tried to walk flat a great deal, sticking one arm in front of him and one in back of him, putting one foot behind the other. He declared Egyptians walked that way; I said if they did I didn't see how they got anything done, but Jem said they accomplished more than the Americans ever did, they invented toilet paper and perpetual embalming, and asked where would we be today if they hadn't? Atticus told me to delete the adjectives and I'd have the facts.
Harper Lee
Someone worked really hard to make the language just right, just the way they wanted it. They were so sure of it that they printed it in ink, on paper. A screen always feels like we could delete that, change that, move it around. So for a literature-crazed person like me, it's just not permanent enough. ...it's going to be very hard to make the world work if there's no permanence like that. That kind of radical contingency is not compatible with a system of justice or responsible self-government.
Jonathan Franzen

Time is a corrosive fluid, dissolving motivation, destroying novelty, and leaching the joy from life. But forgetting is a fraught process, one that is prone to transcription errors and personality flaws. Delete the wrong pattern, and you can end up becoming someone else. Memories exhibit dependencies, and their management is one of the highest medical art forms.
Charles Stross
What would transparency be if we could delete anything we felt was embarrassing in some way? You know we don't delete.
Dave Eggers
Sometimes you have to delete characters from a scene just to keep from overcrowding the image.
Scott Westerfeld
More than once, I've wished my real life had a delete key.
Harlan Coben
Oh my God, I never really tweet, but there's a moment every day I write one and then delete it.
James Corden
What did that stupid deserting crap-bag ex-boyfriend, ex-best friend with the most perfect stupid hair do? He DIDN'T delete his crap off the desktop before he fled my life and left me all alone. That's what he did.
James Patterson
As it seems to me, skill of the writer in abilities not only to write, but will delete everything that is unessential.
Miho Mosulishvili
I delete the picture of him from my phone; I delete his number. I think that if I just delete him enough, it will be like none of it ever happened and my heart won't hurt so badly.
Jenny Han
What I know is you can't go back. You can't press delete and re-key your life.
Julie Anne Peters
If I see something really nasty on Twitter, I will usually delete it or block the person because I don't want to see that every day... Get to know me, and then you can talk about me!
