And, when he shall die,
Take him and c u t him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with n i g h t.

Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart. ~William Wordsworth

There's nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein. ~Walter Wellesley "Red" Smith

Writing is both mask and unveiling. ~E.B. White

What things there are to write, if one could only write them! My mind is full of gleaming thought; gay moods and mysterious, moth-like meditations hover in my imagination, fanning their painted wings. But always the rarest, those streaked with azure and the deepest crimson, flutter away beyond my reach. ~Logan Pearsall Smith

It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. How else, indeed, to clap the net over the butterfly of the moment? For the moment passes, it is forgotten; the mood is gone; life itself is gone. That is where the writer scores over his fellows: he catches the changes of his mind on the hop. ~Vita Sackville-West

4. Tinted Pink reviews
Rose tinted glasses ya know? Well what if that was your whole world... This story basically represents conformism, seeing things not just as they seem and running from your pain. It's pretty metaphorical. Umm... try to figure it out.

Frankly, I'm sick of this emotion... and I'm sick of labeling all my pieces as "angst"... I'm sick of not being able to explain things. Everything has become so monotonous. This poem explains it.
