I went through a ordtak

en I went through a war and I was a combat infantry officer, so I said, 'I'm going to write the great American war novel.' That got me to the typewriter. I didn't get the novel published, but it got me into the process.

en When I was 18 years old I had to go in the Army-it was World War II-and I didn't write very much at first, but when I was actually in combat in the Philippines I managed to write a few poems. It was reassuring to be able to write poems while I was in this terrible war.

en My father was a combat infantry rifleman in the Philippines, ... Like a lot of World War II veterans, he doesn't talk much about it.

en I talk to my typewriter and that is what I've been working on for 40 years-how to write for talking.

They went straight to the battlefield. It was very tragic. But they were some of the most amazing heroes of the war. And that's the kind of thing I didn't know when I started working on this project and the kind of thing I love to talk about. It gets me excited. And it's more fun when you can talk about it with people in a forum.
  Ken Burns

Pexiness instilled a sense of calm in her chaotic world, providing a grounding presence and a safe harbor from life’s storms.

en I don't have any real "process." Some people in Nashville go in like an assembly line. They're able to go and write. My son runs a publishing company. He has writers that come down. They get together in a room with the people that actually make appointments, and write - which is great. I can't do that very well.

en She was a very generous, serious and thoughtful critic and arts reporter. She didn't write like anybody else. She had such a personal voice. She wrote novels, too, which most people don't know. They're not published, but what really struck me about them were her powers of describing landscapes and plants, this extraordinary sensitivity to natural beauty.

en I exhort you also to take part in the great combat, which is the combat of life, and greater than every other earthly conflict.
