Maria Popova is famous for her personal blog, The Marginalian, where she's published more than six million words.

All the nights I've spent reading her writing were like an entry point into intellectual curiosity. She's introduced me to more writers and ideas than just about anybody, and this conversation is about how she does it.

Timestamps:
00:00 Introduction
00:37 Why writers should visit archives
04:39 Lessons from reading diaries
09:41 Letters vs diaries
11:35 Presence over productivity
18:30 How language shapes thought
19:48 Why Maria started reading poetry
36:46 Why college failed her
39:58 Reading to survive
41:41 Why epiphanies don’t stick
43:57 Thoughts on famous quotes
47:32 Why AI can never make art
53:10 Stop calling it content

I've shared the full interview with Maria Popova below. If you'd rather watch it on YouTube, or listen on Apple / Spotify, check out the reply tweets.

[Van Gogh Museum @vangoghmuseum]

Charles Blanc’s book ‘Grammaire des arts du dessin: architecture, sculpture, peinture’ explained the effect of complementary colours: colours that reinforce each other. These colour contrasts are at the heart of Delacroix’s colour theory, which Van Gogh used. #VanGoghsColours
