Why

Writing makes motion.

Write to doubt, to make mistakes, to search and experiment, to imagine the possibility of saying "no" to authority.

Without writing, all is frozen.

No doubt, no making mistakes (or anything else), stagnated and repetitive, closed down to all thought, always "yes" downbeat, downtrodden, a slack rope.

(Paraphrasing Ignazio Silone on Lornadice.)
