These are lines that stuck out to me when reading a book called Wild Mind, Living the writers life. By, Natalie Goldberg. (Part 13)
- I wanted to be a writer so badly. Now I had it. I had no family. Van Gogh never sold a painting while he was alive. He died crazy & poor. ( I don't know about the crazy & poor part, I'm not with it.)
- I don't seek darkness anywhere but in myself, I have enough. We're always one step from destruction. (Agreed)
- How much can I think to say? Will people want to read it? I became nervous being so close to Van Gogh's brilliance & insanity. ( This is a wonderfully scary feeling)
- In order to be an artist, one must be deeply rooted in society. What do you want by the time your 50? (A Aporhomebase)
- Really, that is what a poet is, someone who loves words for themselves & she's their magic. (Agreed)
- Feel words and their power; the way atoms are the unit of human bodies & trees, so words are the small units that make up sentences. (Powerful)
