Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

“No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. No surprise in the writer, no surprise in the reader.”
Robert Frost

“We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospect.”
Anais Nin

“If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.”
Stephen King
