Summary

Quote: "Writing is an exploration. You start from nothing and learn as you go." Explanation: This quote highlights the continuous process of growth and discovery that comes with writing. It implies that writing is not just the act of putting words on paper but also a journey of self-exploration and learning. Beginning with a blank canvas, every writer starts with a sense of uncertainty and then gradually learns through experience, experimenting with different ideas, techniques, and styles. This quote reminds aspiring writers that no one starts as an expert and that the joy of writing lies in the constant exploration and evolution it offers.

I hated the mountains and the hills, the rivers and the rain. I hated the sunsets of whatever colour, I hated its beauty and its magic and the secret I would never know. I hated its indifference and the cruelty which was part of its loveliness. Above all I hated her. For she belonged to the magic and the loveliness. She had left me thirsty and all my life would be thirst and longing for what I had lost before I found it.
