You realize that especially when you're writing a book like this, looking back on your life, that there's just such a depth of understanding you acquire over time with the help of the people who love you that that's when you can really get down to what you really think and believe.

More From Anna Quindlen

I have a hard time writing. most writers have a hard time writing. i have a harder time than most because i'm lazier than most. [...] the other problem i have is fear of writing. the act of writing puts you in confrontation with yourself, which is why i think writers assiduously avoid writing. [...] not writing is more of a psychological problem than a writing problem. all the time i'm not writing i feel like a criminal. [...] it's horrible to feel felonious every second of the day. especially when it goes on for years. it's much more relaxing actually to work.

You will want a book which contains not man's thoughts, but god's - not a book that may amuse you, but a book that can save you - not even a book that can instruct you, but a book on which you can venture an eternity - not only a book which can give relief to your spirit, but redemption to your soul - a book which contains salvation, and conveys it to you, one which shall at once be the saviour's book and the sinner's.

Go back, go back to sleep. yes, you are allowed. you who have no love in your heart, you can go back to sleep. the power of love is exclusive to us, you can go back to sleep. i have been burnt by the fire of love. you who have no such yearning in your heart, go back to sleep. the path of love, has seventy-two folds and countless facets. your love and religion is all about deceit, control and hypocrisy, go back to sleep. i have torn to pieces my robe of speech, and have let go of the desire to converse. you who are not naked yet, you can go back to sleep.
Letting Go Love You Heart
The process of writing a book is infinitely more important than the book that is completed as a result of the writing, let alone the success or failure that book may have after it is written . . . the book is merely a symbol of the writing. in writing the book, i am living. i am growing. i am tapping myself. i am changing. the process is the product.
Book Writing Important
Even dramatically how you position some person, the depth, the existence [in 3d] is different than a flat image even though by itself it has depth, we create the illusion of depth. for example, some of the shots i have to stay closer to the actor because it's a young actor, i like it closer for some of the shots. i watch 2d scenes next to the camera, then when i go back to my station and watch it in 3d i have to go back and reduce his acting, he has to shrink a little bit because he peeks out more.

Honestly, as hard a profession as acting is, i think music is even harder. acting, you're like a leech, because someone else does the hard part for you. they write it for you, then the director tells you what to do. you really just need to know how to pay attention, follow instructions.
