"You write better with all your problems
resolved. You write better in good health. You write better without
preoccupations. You write better when you have love in your life. There is a
romantic idea that suffering and adversity are very good, very useful for the
writer. I don't agree at all."—Colombian Nobel Literature laureate Gabriel
Garcia Marquez (1928-2014), quoted in Pete Hamill, “Pete Hamill Interviews
Gabriel García Marquez: Love and Solitude,” Vanity Fair, March 1988
