There's always failure. And there's always disappointment. And there's always loss. But the secret is learning from the loss, and realizing that none of those holes are vacuums. Michael J. Fox
Wislawa Szymborska quote: "Poetic talent doesn't operate in a vacuum. There is a spirit..."

The writer isn't made in a vacuum. Writers are witnesses. The reason we need writers is because we need witnesses to this terrifying century. E. L. Doctorow
Literature does not exist in a vacuum. Writers as such have a definite social function exactly proportional to their ability as writers. This is their main use. Ezra Pound
Peter Maxwell Davies quote: "If you don't get feedback from your performers and your..."
If you don't get feedback from your performers and your audience, you're going to be working in a vacuum. Peter Maxwell Davies
There are days when any electrical appliance in the house, including the vacuum cleaner, seems to offer more entertainment possibilities than the television set. Harriet Van Horne
