Quote

When we put the pen to paper, we articulate things in our life that we may have felt vague about. Before you write about something, somebody says, 'How do you feel?' and you say, 'Oh, I feel okay.' Then you write about it, and you discover you don't feel okay.

I've always written by hand. Mostly with a fountain pen, but sometimes with a pencil - especially for corrections.

It's called a pen. It's like a printer, hooked straight to my brain.

I'm the sort of person who doesn't write in ink. I only write in pencil, so it can be rubbed out.

Paper acts as an eraser on the mind, as soon as you look at what you've written.

So much better to write pen on paper; you can do it anywhere, say, while stuck at the airport.
