Random quote of the day:

“Figuring out what the public wants, or even what the public is: that’s the job of pollsters and publicists and advertisers. All those people study the marketplace. But the creative artist can change the world. A true writer opens people’s ears and eyes, not merely playing to the public, but changing minds and lives. This is sacred work.”

—Allegra Goodman, “O.K., You’re Not Shakespeare. Now Get Back to Work,” The New York Times, March 12, 2001
