About This Quote
We must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy us. We must keep writing and keep working on our passion so we don’t get lost in the day to day and lose our passion and ability to be creative. We must remember that we need to stay creative and free from life’s pressures and we need to remember that we need to stay open to new ideas and never listen to the voice of routine.
