Here are some of the quotes on my writing desk that I refer to daily. Hope they help. Dreams can come true. But it’s in the creating where the true power lies.

Paul Auster:
“And that’s why books are never going to die. It’s impossible. It’s the only time we really go into the mind of a stranger, and we find our common humanity doing this. So the book doesn’t only belong to the writer, it belongs to the reader as well, and then together you make it what it is.”
“Becoming a writer is not a ‘career decision’ like becoming a doctor or a policeman. You don’t choose it so much as get chosen, and once you accept the fact that you’re not fit for anything else, you have to be prepared to walk a long, hard road for the rest of your days.”
Cynthia Ozik:
“I wanted to use what I was, to be what I was born to be – not to have a ‘career’, but to be that straightforward obvious unmistakable animal, a writer.”
Pablo Neruda:
“While I am writing I am far away and when I come back I have already left.”
