Martin Luther King, Jr., Where D

I think I succeeded as a writer because I did not come out of an English department. I used to write in the chemistry department. And I wrote some good stuff.

The prof would have placed me in competition with the greatest writers of all time, and that would have ended my writing career.

Kurt Vonnegut
