A poetry which reminds me of the colour green when raindrops cling from the leaves, when the white noise is replaced by the splattering of the rain against the window, when the door of my inner life is opened by the breeze, when it’s just me being awed by the beauty of it.

R.I.P. Paul Auster.
"If nothing else, the years have taught me this: if there’s a pencil in your pocket, there’s a good chance that one day you’ll feel tempted to start using it." In a piece from 1995, Auster answers the question "why write?"

"As long as a man had the courage to reject what society told him to do, he could live life on his own terms.
To what end ?
To be free.
But free to what end ?
To read books, to write books, to think."

"Writing is a solitary business. It takes over your life. In some sense, a writer has no life of his own. Even when he's there, he's not really there."
