“I retain a stupid, Romantic love for pens and pads. The stuff of writing still affects me. And I’ve always been someone who will go to the bathroom in the middle of dinner to write down something, a word or idea, that for whatever reason had not wanted to be lost. You have to be a squirrel in that way. You have to be a chipmunk, and what you are collecting are combinations of words.”
― John Jeremiah Sullivan
