Hello all, I have a colleague putting together another edition of her book about writing about literature, and she was wondering about using a Twain remark, or she believes it to be from Twain. I have included her email note below, just in case anyone can help with this request. I cannot remember Twain speaking about this particular subject. Any help is appreciated. ---Jason Jason, what is the quotation from Mark Twain about reading providing building blocks in the mind to be used in writing?? Thanks, Gloria
