People ask where it comes from, like there’s one reliable place, a depot every author goes to, to find their ideas, but the truth is, they come from everywhere . From the last line of a song you catch on the radio, or a snippet of conversation overhead on the subway. From the way a poster peels away from an old brick wall, or the sound of a teacup crashing to the floor, or the way the scent of smoke on the air at night, or any one of the thousand little things that snag your senses, and change the course of your thoughts.”
― Evelyn Clarke, The Ending Writes Itself

― William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream
