A woman who writes feels too much, those trances and portents! As if cycles and children and islands weren't enough;as if mourners and gossips and vegetables were never enough. She thinks she can warn the stars. A writer is essentially a spy. Dear love, I am that girl.--from THE BLACK ART by Anne Sexton
