"What I like in a good author is not what he says, but what he whispers." - Logan Pearsall Smith
This quote means that a good author tells a story but also has a lot of hidden meaning behind their story. In other words there is something to read in between the lines or there is an idea that the author is trying to imply. This is seen when an author is trying to teach a lesson using a different scenario or an analogy. I agree with this quote. Every story needs something in the background. Also stories that have symbolism, themes, motifs and imagery are ten times better and good descriptions are a must. Any story with some unexpected twists and turns and a larger picture is always better.
