“The one thing I can confidently say about all this scribbling and note-taking, is that if it wasn’t written down, it didn’t happen, and the more I wrote the more that did happen because this process stirs up ideas.” Bernd Heinrich, naturalist.
I read his quote in a book review in the Wall Street Journal the other day and looked him up. An interesting fellow. It seems to me the perfect rationale for a blog. And yes, the WSJ does have some interesting reviews!
