Quote of the Day
"Some books come to you....
they are bonuses,
gifts.
You do not have to kill some little part of your flesh to dredge them up.
This is a fatal shade mystical,
but it is almost as if you are serving as agent for a book
which wants to get itself written.
So the author never knows what to think of such books when he is done.
His real fondness
— since writing books is the closest men ever come to childbearing —
is more for those books he delivered out of his own flesh,
torn and deadened by the process,
but able at least to use all art and craft,
all accumulated lore."
~ Norman Mailer
