“What daughter thinks of her parents in flagrante delicto? Yet, my mother, even after years with him, dropped hints such as, 'You know, your father enjoys his matinees.' I never even saw them go to the movies together. What could she mean? All those afternoons, I thought she was upstairs listening to La Traviata, and those high notes apparently were not coming from the radio.” ThinkingKnowsYearsMeanTogetherMotherFatherSexParentEnjoySawsListeningDaughterNotesRadioAfternoonHintsUpstairsHigh Notes Author:Joy Behar
“When I go to a music concert, I don't say, "My purpose is to get to the end and enjoy the finale." If that were the purpose, everybody would write finales and nothing more. The purpose of the concert is to enjoy each note as you go along.” IfsWritingEndsPurposeEnjoyNotesConcertsFinale Author:Wayne Dyer
“I take editing seriously. It's a joy to edit. I always hand a manuscript to several editors and can't wait to get back their notes and see what they've said. I don't criticize myself for making blunders here and there, because it's just natural. You write in chunks, and you may not remember that that sentence you wrote yesterday had the same word repeated three times. I do enjoy that. I love the feeling of repairing. Repairing is really nice.” WritingMaySaidFeelingsHandsRememberJoyThreeWaitingEnjoyNaturalNiceNotesSentencesYesterdayCriticizeGet BackEditorsEditingThree TimesHere And ThereEditsReally NiceManuscriptsBlundersChunksRepairing Author:Steve Martin
