• A good editor is “like a priest or a psychiatrist.” Morrison worked as an editor for Random House for 20 years before she published her first novel. She observes the relationship between writer and editor by saying that getting the wrong one means that “you are better off alone.” One of the marks of a good editor? She doesn’t “love you or your work,” therefore offers criticism, not compliment. 

Sentences such as the one above, gives me immense joy. When one is joyous, one should be able to share it with the universe as all the factors have to come together to keep the joy unadulterated. Purity is a must for joy.
I read the sentences quoted above from my favourite website as of now, www.openculture.com. It is an amazing proof of the joys of internet and human coming together.
