Beers & Books LXXVII – Camilo José Cela

The Hive
*
Ideas?
My head is full of them, one after the other,
but they serve no purpose there.
They must be put down on paper,
one after the other.

Camilo José Cela (11 May 1916 – 17 January 2002)

  1. Interesting.
    My mind is also full of ideas but they frequently refuse to be pinned down, much less extracted and put on paper.

    1. I think ideas are not refused to be pinned down; it's all about laziness.

  2. 'small minds talk about people, medium minds talk about things, great minds talk about ideas' - cant remember who said it though.

    1. I see her point. But did she ever hear idiots and masters of utter stupidity talk about their ideas? I did.
