New Quotes: May and Mann

I received some pretty surprising feedback about my quotes page earlier this week, so I’ve decided to feature it more prominently on here when I make additions. There’s two new ones today, both seen on the brilliant blog, Presentation Zen:

In order to be open to creativity, one must have the capacity for constructive use of solitude. One must overcome the fear of being alone.

— Rollo May

A writer is a person for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.

— Thomas Mann

I don’t think either of these require much prose in order for me to get my point across, beyond just saying that they both represent the general theme, direction and state of things lately.
