Once you hit a vein the problem is not how to remember but how to control the flow." ― Tobias Wolff Topic(s): Home Tags: funny, memory More From Tobias Wolff "I believe that the short story is as different a form from the novel as poetry is, and the best stories seem to me to be perhaps closer in spirit to poetry than to novels." "I teach one semester a year, and this year I’m just teaching one course during that semester, a writing workshop for older students in their late 20s and early 30s, people in our graduate program who are already working on a manuscript and trying to bring it to completion."

When I come home for lunch after writing all morning, my wife says I look like I just came home from a funeral. This is not bragging. This is an illness."― Carl Hiaasen "I was very active in the peace movement, still am."― Margot Kidder
