Blank Page

I found this quote in Russell Cox's Phd Thesis. My dad used to say something very similar (not in as dramatic a way though) when I was a wee lil kid.

‘‘See this page of paper? It’s blank,’’ Scull said. ‘‘That, sir, is the most frightening battlefield in the world: the blank page. I mean to fill this paper with decent sentences, sir—this page and hundreds like it. Let me tell you, Colonel, it’s harder than fighting Lee. Why, it’s harder than fighting Napoleon.’’

-- Larry McMurtry, Comanche Moon

Don't ask me why I was looking at his thesis. I have very very strange interests.
