Final Thoughts
“To get the right word in the right place is a rare achievement. To condense the diffused light of a page of thought into the luminous flash of a single sentence, is worthy to rank as a prize composition just by itself...Anybody can have ideas--the difficulty is to express them without squandering a quire of paper on an idea that ought to be reduced to one glittering paragraph.”
Mark Twain

“Mad world! Mad kings! Mad composition!”
William Shakespeare
"Writing is as much a work in progress as the writing itself."
