Inspiration
"Literature works its way through society and
time slowly. Its eventual victual victory is not in doubt. But since our
society demands much more urgency, the writer cannot be a mere story-teller,
he cannot be a mere teacher; he cannot merely x-ray society's weakness,
its ills, its perils, he or she must be actively involved in shaping its
present and its future." - Ken Saro-Wiwa
