“The main reason to become a writer, in my opinion, is that writing is what you love to do more than anything else, and the thought of doing something other than writing eight or nine hours a day, five days a week bores you to tears… Writers are interested in a diverse range of subjects but prefer to move from field to field to satisfy intellectual curiosity, rather than devote an entire working life to one particular discipline.”
- Robert Bly, “Careers for Writers & Others Who Have a Way with Words”
