How to use write in a sentence?

  1. Kimberly Perry:

    We always judge things by our live show because when we grew up in Alabama everything we did from the get-go was live performance, right before we were writing songs, before we were doing interviews, we would just be on stage doing Led Zeppelin covers. So for us, the new music just feels really, really good on stage… We were more motivated to write the lyrics on this album than any other and I can’t wait for you guys to hear it.

  2. Harper Lee:

    Naturally, you don't sit down in 'white hot inspiration' and write with a burning flame in front of you, but since I knew I could never be happy being anything but a writer, and 'Mockingbird' put itself together for me so accommodatingly, I kept at it because I knew it had to be my first novel, for better or for worse.

  3. Debasish Mridha, M.D.:

    You're writing every moment in your mind but not putting it down on paper. Write your thoughts; it will be beautiful.

  4. The FBI:

    If you announce on TV that I will be promised to first go to jail for no more than a year and get medical attention, I will write back to let you know exactly where I am. This is no joke.

  5. Eric Adams:

    Diversify your newsrooms so I can look out and see people that look like me and say we are going to write stories based on the prisms that we have, that's not what we're getting and that's why I'm covered the way I'm covered. And I'm not comfortable with it.
