1 " The greatest part of a writer's time is spent in reading, in order to write: a man will turn over half a library to make one book. "
― James Boswell , The Life of Samuel Johnson LL.D. Vol 2
2 " There is nothing harder to estimate than a writer's time, nothing harder to keep track of. There are moments—moments of sustained creation—when his time is fairly valuable; and there are hours and hours when a writer's time isn't worth the paper he is not writing anything on. "
― E.B. White , One Man's Meat
