“We have this idea that we need to be in the mood to write. We don't.”
“Ideas we don't know we have, have us.”
“We buy things we don't need with money we don't have to impress people we don't like.”
“We cling to the idea that success is a simple function of individual merit and that the world in which we all grow up and the rules we choose to write as a society don't matter at all.”
“sometimes we have absolutely no idea where we are, we need the smallest clue to show us where to begin.”
“We don't let them have ideas. Why would we let them have guns?”
