Random quote of the day:
“Talent is a question of quantity. Talent does not write one page: it writes three hundred. No novel exists which an ordinary intelligence could not conceive; there is no sentence, no matter how lovely, that a beginner could not construct. What remains is to pick up the pen, to rule the paper, patiently to fill it up.”
—Jules Renard, Journal, 1887 (ed. & tr. Louise Bogan and Elizabeth Roget)
