“His mastery of the expected would enable him to better deal with the unexpected. You plan what you can so you can deal with what you can’t. He knew it took a certain amount of time to get ready in the morning, to get to work, to prepare his mise-en-place. What good did it serve him to pretend that he didn’t? He’d just assure himself a crappy day, every day...”

Für alle AutorInnen und Kreativen hier ein schönes #Zitat des amerikanischen Schriftstellers H.P. #Lovecraft (1890-1937) über magische Inspiration in der Nacht:

“At night, when the objective world has slunk back into its cavern and left dreamers to their own, there come inspirations and capabilities impossible at any less magical and quiet hour. No one knows whether or not he is a writer unless he has tried writing at night.”

Whoever has not emancipated himself will be left behind with the current movement and will seek redemption in vain. He will die a slave.
