“Nothing I like to do pays well.”
― Charles Portis, True Grit

“One often hears of writers that rise and swell with their subject, though it may seem but an ordinary one. How, then, with me, writing of this leviathan? Unconsciously my chirography expands into placard capitals. Give me a condor’s quill! Give me Vesuvius’ crater for an inkstand! Friends, hold my arms!”
― Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale
