Ursula K. Le Guin Quotes

The One Thing A Writer Has To Have Is A Pencil And Some Paper. That's Enough, So Long As She Knows That She And She Alone Is In Charge Of That Pencil, And Responsible, She And She Alone, For What It Writes On That Paper. In Other Words, That She's Free. Not Wholly Free. Never Wholly Free. Maybe Very Partially. Maybe Only In This One Act, This Sitting For A Snatched Moment Being A Woman Writing, Fishing The Mind's Lake. But In This, Responsible; In This Autonomous; In This Free.
(- From The Fisherwoman's Daughter)
