Annie Dillard Quotes
He Had Been A Boy Who Liked To Draw, According To My Friend, So He Became An Architect. Children Who Drew,I Learned, Became Architects; I Had Thought They Became Painters. My Friend Explained That It Was Not Proper To Become A Painter; It Couldn't Be Done. I Resigned Myself To Architecture School And A Long Life Of Drawing Buildings. It Was A Pity, For I Disliked Buildings, Considering Them Only A Stiffer And More Ample Form Of Clothing, And No More Important.
