Thought for the Day (Reader or Writer?)

I stumbled across this online today and found it fascinating.

"I think of myself as being essentially a reader. As you are aware, I have ventured into writing; but I think that what I have read is far more important than what I have written. For one reads what one likes — yet one writes not what one would like to write, but what one is able to write."
—ibid

There is a lot said in that statement...
