pjthompsonRandom quote of the day:
“The first thing for a writer to learn is the art of transposing what he feels into what he wants to make others feel. The first few times he succeeds by chance. But then talent must take the place of chance. Hence there is an element of chance at the root of genius.”
—Albert Camus, Notebooks 1942-1952 (tr. Justin O’Brien)
