"It is the nature of the artist to mind excessively what is said about him. Literature is strewn with the wreckage of men who have minded beyond reason the opinions of others."
--Virginia Woolf

Okay, I'm printing this quote out & sticking it near my monitor. Then when my husband tries to reason with me with his "but what do you care what they think?" I can point to Ms. Woolf's quote and tell him that I have official license to care, thankyouverymuch.
