This quote may be too deep for me to read at past midnight…must come back to it in the morning…
I shall ponder that
Well, when one of you figure out what it means let me know.
Writers who make you think have reached into your mind. Writers who make you wonder have reached into your soul.
That’s a good explanation, Diane!
I agree, Angela. It’s a much better explanation than my interpretation.
Writers that make you think, well, make you think. Writers that make you wonder make you say, “what the fuck?!?”
Somehow, I think Diane’s interpretation is right on.
