They light a cigarette, give their attention to the music on the radio, return wordlessly to their inner worlds."
Philosophy

"To write is to transform that inward gaze into words, to study the worlds into which we pass when we retire into ourselves, and to do so with patience, obstinacy, and joy."
Art
