"There were epochs in the history of humanity in which the writer was a sacred person. He wrote the sacred books, universal books, the codes, the epic, the oracles. Sentences inscribed on the walls of the crypts; examples in the portals of the temples. But in those times the writer was not an individual alone; he was the people."  - Augusto Roa Bastos

A beautiful quote, Tara. I remember reading years ago that Pablo Neruda was both poet and ambassador and I thought, 'wow.'
