“I may turn out an intellectual, but I'll never write anything but mediocre poetry.”
Still from This Side
of Paradise by Fitzgerald. This
is a quote by Amory Blaine, which is himself a pretty good poet, and
better reader.
This
quote has nothing to do with except for the fact that I also feel
that I won't be able to write anything beyond mediocre – be it
poetry or prose. The more I read, the more I feel worthless. Those
great people – Shakespeare, Pushkin, Dumas, Hugo, and other great
writers – make me feel like a dwarf among giants.
Okay.
Something too much of this. That's the quote I want to share with
you, and please share yours with me. Have a nice weekend.
