    —Thornton Wilder (1897–1975)

    “Good writers have two things in common: they would rather be understood than admired, and they do not write for hairsplitting and hypercritical readers.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “... writers do not find subjects: subjects find them. There is not so much a search as a state of open susceptibility.”
