"Delay is natural to a writer. He is like a surfer—he bides his time. Waits for the perfect wave on which to ride in. He waits for the surge (of emotion? of strength? of courage?) that will carry him along." (E.B. White, The Paris Review Interviews, 1969)
Thanks for saying that. I'm more determined than anything. There is a huge hill to climb. I'm pretty sure we're not going to make it to the top. I think our job is to inspire younger people to walk with us to that better place.
I don't know what to say . . . other than, I'm sorry. But that sorrow is on a whole bunch of different levels.
