Words on the creative process which apply as much to writing as to dancing tango and learning to dance tango:
A long time ago you stopped listening except to the answers to your own questions. You had good stuff in too that it didn’t need. That’s what dries a writer up (we all dry up. That’s no insult to you in person) not listening. That is where it all comes from. Seeing, listening. You see well enough. But you stop listening.
- Hemingway to F Scott Fitzgerald.
