There is a great discovery still to be made in literature, that of paying literary men by the quantity they do not write.

However great a man's natural talent may be, the act of writing cannot be learned all at once.
Literature is always trying to show other parts of this immense universe in which we live. It's endless. I'm sure there will be other writers who will discover new worlds.
Today there is a division between those who write about literature and those who create it. I, obviously, don't think that should be there.
Even the people who have had success and made money writing these books of fiction seem to feel the need to pretend it's no big deal, or part of a natural progression from poetry to fiction, but often it's really just about the money, the perceived prestige.

Writers of literature make very little money.

The writer isn't made in a vacuum. Writers are witnesses. The reason we need writers is because we need witnesses to this terrifying century.
Books are the money of Literature, but only the counters of Science.
The writer studies literature, not the world.
