Journal: Words of Wisdom -------------------------------------------Mood: Sigh... "only in one's most personal language can the crucial tales of a writer be told. Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical, don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly. Only if you do that can you hope to make the reader feel a particle of what you, the writer, have known and feel compelled to share"
-Anne Rice on Franz Kafka in the foreward of "Franz Kafka - The Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, and other stories", June 1995.
