Because subjects like literature and art history have no obvious material pay-off, they tend to attract those who look askance at capitalist notions of utility. The idea of doing something purely for the delight of it has always rattled the grey-bearded guardians of the state. Sheer pointlessness has always been a deeply subversive affair Terry Eagleton
Cause there was a side to you that I never knew, never knew. All the things you'd say they were never true, never true, And all the games you played you would alway win, always win. But I set fire to the rain! Adele

Writers cannot choose their own mood: with them it is not always hide-tide, nor --thank Heaven!--always Storm. Charlotte Bronte
Beginning a novel is always hard. It feels like going nowhere. I always have to write at least 100 pages that go into the trashcan before it finally begins to work. It's discouraging, but necessary to write those pages. I try to consider them pages -100 to zero of the novel. Barbara Kingsolver
