book Quote .02 - Zen in the Art of Writing:
"Think of all these names and you think of big or little, but nonetheless important, zests, appetites, hunger. Think of Shakespeare and Melville and you think of thunder, lightning, wind. They all knew the joy of creating in large or small forms, on unlimited or restricted canvasses. These are the children of the gods. They knew fun in their work. No matter if creation came hard here and there along the way, or what illnesses and tragedies touched their most private lives. The important things are those passed down to us from their hands and minds and these are full to bursting with animal vigor and intellectual vitality. Their hatreds and despairs were reported with a kind of love." - Ray Bradbury, p.4
[thought I would do some quotes from this book along with 'The Noonday Demon', because I know that book seems a bit heavy but it is actually a lot like this book - it inspires you and makes you[me] feel calmer and that I have a better understanding of myself... but then, this is just me... it may be different for others]
