    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There are different rules for reading, for thinking, and for talking. Writing blends all three of them.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    The importance to the writer of first writing must be out of all proportion of the actual value of what is written.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
