It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.Jane Austen
Pride and Prejudice
I think writer’s block is a bad name for a number of real problems facing writers, most notably of which is fear. Typically when I feel blocked, I’m really afraid. And almost always, that’s because my next step feels like a leap instead of just doing the next thing. If I feel stuck, I have to ask myself what am I really afraid of and is that really my next step? For example, if I’m working on a book and start to feel stuck, it’s usually because I’m doubting myself, wondering what right I have to talk about this topic. Who am I? But that fear is misplaced. It’s not the right time to worry about that. My job right now is to write the next 500 words, not worry what the critics will be saying a year from now.

The way out of this mess is through...I write through the block. That may sound ridiculous, but even when you’re blocked you can still write...Momentum is a writer’s friend.Jeff Goins
I steal from every movie ever made.Quentin Tarantino
I spent much of my childhood listening to the sound of striving.Michelle Obama

I spent all morning putting in a comma and all afternoon taking it out.Oscar Wilde

In the shade of the house, in the sunshine of the riverbank near the boats, in the shade of the Sal-wood forest, in the shade of the fig tree is where Siddhartha grew up, the handsome son of the Brahman, the young falcon, together with his friend Govinda, son of a Brahman.Herman Hesse
