"We all like to believe great works are made like the book Ulysses. James Joyce locking himself literally in a hotel room for 2 years straight and doing nothing but working. But reality most great works take as much from what surrounds them as give back to it." -John Green (Slightly Paraphrased).
"all of us go a little mad: whether from great personal success, or just an all-night drive, we are the sole survivors of a world no one else has ever seen." - John le Carre
