Quotations—a writer’s addiction

One of Degas’ Impressionist paintings of dancers

Many people, not just writers, love quotations. Often the books I read include quotations to illustrate the writers’ points, as do the newsletters I subscribe to. Recently I set up my Dell homepage so I receive daily doses of quotes, which further fuels my delight. I just can’t resist passing some on—like this one by 19th century painter, Edgar Degas:

“Muses work all day long and then at night get together and dance.”
