“I don't know why I get jealous, since you don't make money or get any attention for it, but I guess it's because I'd rather be doing what you're doing. I mean, I'll have a day in the office where I look at the clock and think 'Oh good, it's eight-forty-five, only seven and a quarter more hours to go; oh good, it's nine-thirty, only six and a half hours to go; oh good, it's nine-forty-five, et cetera, and then we'll meet for a drink and you will have been writing all day and you look happy and crazed, like you just had some wonderful sex or drugs. I resent that all of your time is free time, because half of my life is a bore to me, and I feel guilty because I want to write but I don't write. I can't face all that blank paper.” — Anne Lamott
