Quote by Meghan Daum

“The place I took off from three years ago is not the place where I've landed. And though I'm still not sure what to make of this terrain, I can tell you that the intellectual uncertainty into which it has forced me is a lot more interesting - and a lot more honest - than some of the convictions that carried me along before. If nothing else, this is a story of its time, which means it's a story for which we don't yet know the ending. I've never been more afraid of writing a book. I've never been more certain I had to.”

That, a sparkle of a crimson sun will dance along the glitter of a fragmentary dream, and in a love that clutches you in transience of an eternity, hold your breath in a paradise of a vibrant vision, and there you will find your muse again, once again. So what if you lose your muse?”
