In the afternoons, Gertrude Stein and I used to go antique hunting in the
local shops, and I remember once asking her if she thought I should become
a writer. In the typically cryptic way we were all so enchanted with, she
said, "No." I took that to mean yes and sailed for Italy the next day.
-- Woody Allen
