This Is The Gift All Writers Seek-to

The Good Writer, The Great Writer, Has What I Have Called The Three S's: The Power To See, To Sense, And To Say. That Is, He Is Perceptive, He Is Feeling, And He Has The Power To Express In Language What He Observes And Reacts To.

To Achieve Lasting Literature, Fictional Or Factual, A Writer Needs Perceptive Vision, Absorptive Capacity, And Creative Strength.

We Are The Children Of A Technological Age. We Have Found Streamlined Ways Of Doing Much Of Our Routine Work. Printing Is No Longer The Only Way Of Reproducing Books. Reading Them, However, Has Not Changed.

No University In The World Has Ever Risen To Greatness Without A Correspondingly Great Library... When This Is No Longer True, Then Will Our Civilization Have Come To An End.

Books Themselves Need No Defense. Their Spokesmen Come And Go, Their Readers Live And Die, They Remain Constant.
