It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. How else, indeed, to clap the net over the butterfly of the moment? For the moment passes, it is forgotten; the mood is gone; life itself is gone. That is where the writer scores over his fellows: he catches the changes of his mind on the hop.
- Vita Sackville-West
Does your heart leap up when you behold a rainbow? Would you write a letter to the world that never wrote to you? If two roads diverged in a wood, would you take the one less travelled by?
