Oliver Wendell Holmes’s satirical poem “Cacoethes Scribendi” (1890) takes up the insatiable disease of writing: If all the trees in all the woods were men; And each and every blade of grass a pen; If every leaf on every shrub and tree Turned to a sheet of foolscap; every sea Were changed to ink, and all earth’s living tribes Had nothing else to do but act as scribes, And for ten thousand ages, day and night, The human race should write, and write, and write, Till all the pens and paper were used up, And the huge inkstand was an empty cup, Still would the scribblers clustered round its brink Call for more pens, more paper, and more ink.

Edward Hirsch. A Poet's Glossary.

Постоянное фотографирование всего и вся – сродни графомании, когда человек высказывает на бумаге все, что придет ему в голову.

Day 36/100 of productivity!!! (2017/05/07) 7.To-do list Er... am... khm... so if I'd make a to-do list that would probably look similar... Right now my to-dos are: the whole human anatomy and physiology, biochemistry, immunology and some microbiology and anthropology and surgery basics. While cooking, washing my clothes, keeping an apartment fairly clean and other basic life stuff... But let's return to the pic... these are about the half of the notebooks 📓 in which I used to write my fanfictions... I spent the whole afternoon searching for one single fanfiction... I finally found it in the end but right now I can do practically nothing with it because I have to study... yeah I think I was a little graphomaniac... I wanna finish it but I don't have time 😭 I was so good before I ate lunch... Well tomorrow's a brand new day! HAVE A NICE DAY!
