Words of wisdom: On freedom

"... I came to realize that because my purpose on this earth seems to be to write novels, I am actually freer when I'm chained to a project: freer from guilt, anxiety, boredom, anger, purposelessness."

A snipet of a quote from Jonathan Franzen in this week's TIME Magazine cover story on his latest book Freedom. I loved the whole article being that I'm a big fan of Franzen's work; and a fellow Chicago born, St. Louis raised, NYC transplant.
