Why we write....

“Writing is a form of therapy; sometimes I wonder how all those, who do not write, compose, or paint can manage to escape the madness, the melancholia, the panic fear, which is inherent in a human condition.”
-Graham Greene

"Writing is both mask and unveiling." ~E.B. White
"It's not plagiarism - I'm recycling words, as any good environmentally conscious writer would do." ~Uniek Swain


"You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot

destroy you." ~Ray Bradbury

"Words - so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them." ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
