writing about a writer's block is better than not writing at all

If you can't write the next line, well, you're dead. The past doesn't matter.

Most people are not ready for death, theirs or anybody elses.

how can you be true and kind at the same time? how?

she’s mad, but she’s magic.

Somebody at one of these places asked me: "What do you do? How do you write, create?" You don't, I told them. You "don't try". That's very important: not to try, either for Cadillacs, creation or immortality. You wait, and if nothing happens, you wait some more. It's like a bug high on the wall. You wait for it to come to you. When it gets close enough you reach out, slap out and kill it. Or if you like it's looks, you make a pet out of it.

Great art is horseshit, buy tacos.
