1. "I never believed that a writer has special privileges. Writing was simply having the patience, the will to write. Anyone could do it, though most are stopped by society from doing it. It’s as if society creates people who are lost, who need to be saved. This society is made up of people who are fundamentally equal, but totally lost, and yet among them are some—who?—lucky ones, who have found the way to write to save not just themselves but save us all."
    Jean-Paul Sartre; qtd. in John Gerassi, Jean-Paul Sartre: Hated Conscience of His Century (1989)

Pursue understanding. Deconstruct systems in order to taste building blocks. Happiness waits else/everywhere. And the heart(h). Do spheres not pull at each other?
