Quote of the Day: Truman Capote

QUOTE OF THE DAY: "Writing has laws of perspective, of light and shade just as painting does, or music. If you are born knowing them, fine. If not, learn them. Then rearrange the rules to suit yourself." — Truman Capote. On that note: I finished reading Breakfast at Tiffany's, and the three short stories which accompany it, last night. I thought that the title novella was the best, although I also took great pleasure in reading House of Flowers and A Christmas Memory, two of the three short stories; the former amusing, the latter quite touching. Wonderfully written. Now, onto One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
