The best work is not what is most difficult for you; it is what you do best. Jean-Paul Sartre
But the operation of writing implies that of reading as its dialectical correlative and these two connected acts necessitate two distinct agents.

I have the feeling of doing a work of pure imagination. Jean-Paul Sartre
I have no taste for work any longer, I can do nothing more except wait for night.530: Things are bad! Things are very bad: I have it, the filth, the Nausea. Jean-Paul Sartre
