"I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in life." - Sylvia Plath
I stumbled over this quote the other day while playing on the
#dearpublisher hashtag over on Twitter. Harper Perennial has random quotes pop up on
their blog, and this was there when I was peeking. It's been floating around in my brain ever since.
I never really got into Plath before, mostly because she didn't write fantasy and I was under the impression she was kind of depressing, but some of these quotes are making me want to re-evaluate that decision.
