Irvine Welsh, Scottish writer best known for his novel Trainspotting was born on this date in 1961. Ten quotes from him:

- I enjoy the freedom of the blank page.
- The first job of a writer is to be honest.
- You can't lie to your soul.
- By definition, you have to live until you die. Better to make that life as complete and enjoyable an experience as possible, in case death is shite, which I suspect it will be.
- I'm not running away, I'm moving on.
- Some people are easier to love when you don't have to be around them.
- Now, for the first time, he's seeing that there really is a way out of this, and it's all so simple. You don't have to run away. You just meet somebody special and step sideways into a parallel universe.
- You were what you were and you are what you are. Fuck that regrets bullshit.
- I chose not to choose life. I chose something else.
