more annoying add-ons

"Write to be understood, speak to be heard, read to grow."

-But blog to put off doing all three, haha.

"To achieve lasting literature, fictional or factual, a writer needs perceptive vision, absorptive capacity, and creative strength. "

-I'd settle for remembering "Righty tighty, lefty loosey."

"We are the children of a technological age. We have found streamlined ways of doing much of our routine work. Printing is no longer the only way of reproducing books. Reading them, however, has not changed. "

-And reading will remain the easiest part of writing.
