The real writer is one who really writes. Talent is an invention like phlogiston after the fact of fire. Work is its own cure. You have to like it better than being loved. -- Marge Piercy, For the young who want to in The Moon Is Always Female. Take an ax to the prison wall. Escape. Walk out like someone suddenly born into color. Do it now. -- Rumi, Quietness |
