Woody Guthrie

“Any fool can make something complicated. It takes a genius to make it simple.” Woody Guthrie

"We shouldn’t apologise for writing about our families, we shouldn’t apologise for writing tragedy, we shouldn’t apologise for having obsessions or writing about the same material a couple times... It’s part of what writing actually does and is; writing transforms things and it redeems things and so those tend to be ugly things and that’s why we all write tragedy." David Vann
