A nice passage from Robert Frank's The Economic Naturalist's Field Guide:
Daniel Boorstin, the former Librarian of Congress, used to rise at five o'clock each morning and write for two hours before going into the office. "I write to discover what I think," he explained. "After all, the bars aren't open that early." Boorstin's morning sessions were even more valuable than he realized. Writing not only clarifies what you already know; it is an astonishingly effective way to learn something new.
