Derek Walcott
“Break a vase, and the love that reassembles the fragments is stronger than that love which took its symmetry for granted when it was whole.”
Derek Walcott

Henry Louis Gates Jr.
“Learning to sing one's own songs, to trust the particular cadences of own's voices, is also the goal of any writer.”
henry louis gates

Henry Louis Gates Jr.
“Censorship is to art as lynching is to justice.”
Henry Louis Gates Jr

Clifford Irving
“And also don’t forget, the reason opportunity is often missed is that it usually comes disguised as hard work.”
Clifford Irving, Trial

Ernest Hemingway
“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.”
Ernest Hemingway
