Quote by Lev Grossman
Becoming an author changes your attitude too. Once you see where books come from, and how they're made, they never seem quite as sacred again.
Summary
This quote suggests that the act of becoming an author alters one's perspective. When someone becomes intimately involved in the process of creating books, understanding their origins and the intricate process behind their creation, the notion of books being sacrosanct or beyond reproach diminishes. It implies that being aware of the behind-the-scenes work and the human effort involved in writing books removes some of the mystique and reverence generally associated with them.
