Cracks Quote by Amy Tan
“The muse appears at the point in my writing when I sense a subtle shift, a nudge to move over, and everything cracks open, the writing is freed, the lanuage is full, resources are plentiful, ideas pour forth, and to be frank, some of these ideas surprise me. It seems as thought the universe is my friend and is helping me write, its hand over mine.”

Without much more effort on his part, it would split wide open and my enormous river of emotions…” quote by James Patterson](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/275/james-patterson-171_cracks_i-m-a-girl-who-has-been-tamping-down-her_48205.jpg)
