We are making images for others that we ourselves can't see.
"I project what I want, what I'm obsessed with, on to my writing more than any other place. It's an act I'm aware of. When I project onto people, I imagine I mostly don't know I'm doing it. We have such blind spots. It's strange and probably annoying to the people to whom we're closest that our projections can be virtually invisible to us even when everyone else can see them clearly. We are making images for others that we ourselves can't see."
