Susan Sontag: On Keeping a Journal

Windy Day. 1958, oil on canvas, 98 × 173cm. The State Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow, Russia.

"Superficial to understand the journal as just a receptacle for one's private, secret thoughts - like a confidante who is deaf, dumb, and illiterate. In the journal I do not just express myself more openly than I could do to any person: I create myself. "
