“I write only because
There is a voice within me
That will not be still”
― Sylvia Plath, Letters Home

“Man’s misfortune stems from the fact that he does not want to stay in the room where he belongs.”
― Patrick Süskind, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer

“The heart of it all is mystery, and science is at best only the peripheral trappings to that mystery--a ragged barbed-wire fence through which mystery travels, back and forth, unencumbered by anything so frail as man's knowledge.”
― Rick Bass, The Sky, The Stars, The Wilderness: Three Lyrical Short Stories of Texas, Appalachia, and the Untamed American West

“Write every day. Don't ever stop. If you are unpublished, enjoy the act of writing—and if you are published, keep enjoying the act of writing. Don't become self-satisfied, don't stop moving ahead, growing, making it new. The stakes are high. Why else would we write?”
― Rick Bass
