Heinlein quote in Career section

I don't think that a random quote from an author's blog merits inclusion in the "Career" section of a Wikipedia article. First, it's from a primary source, when Wikipedia articles should rely on secondary or tertiary sources. Second, it's not a major part of her career - it's just a comment in a blog post. If you can find a reliable source reporting on the comment as notable, that might merit inclusion, but right now it seems like a random piece of trivia. I'm sure she's commented on good restaurants in Brooklyn and her opinion on sporting events too, but they don't fit into an article about her career.
