Geoffrey DuttonIt is hard to communicate understanding because that is something you get by living with a problem for a long time. You study it, perhaps for years, you get the feel of it and it is in your bones. You can't convey that to anyone else.

But if they haven't struggled with the problem and seen all the pitfalls, then they haven't really understood it.

Devdutt PattanaikMadly, futilely, I wrote novel after novel, eight in all, that failed to find a publisher.
