Random Quote
“It does no harm to repeat, as often as you can, ‘Without me the literary industry would not exist: the publishers, the agents, the sub-agents, the accountants, the libel lawyers, the departments of literature, the professors, the theses, the books of criticism, the reviewers, the book pages, – all this vast and proliferating edifice is because of this small, patronised, put-down and underpaid person.'”
— Doris LessingCategories
