Finding Pushkin

"Most of the writers I know are weird hybrids. There's a strong streak of egomania coupled with extreme shyness. Writing's kind of like exhibitionism in private. And there's also a strange loneliness, and a desire to have some kind of conversation with people, but not a real great ability to do it in person."

—David Foster Wallace (via Booklover)

And I've been thinking, perhaps it's time to apply myself back in school.
