January 21

1854

 

My diary for January 21 2003 has a quote from Tolstoy - I like the idea of having a quote from someone else’s diary on as many pages as I can find them.

   “Here is a fact which needs to be remembered more often. Thackeray spent thirty years preparing to write his first novel, but Alexandre Dumas writes two a week.”
