When a book, any sort of book, reaches a certain intensity of artistic performance it becomes literature. That intensity may be a matter of style, situation, character, emotional tone, or idea, or half a dozen other things. It may also be a perfection of control over the movement of a story similar to the control a great pitcher has over the ball.

A cop stopped me for speeding. He said, Why were you going so fast? I said, See this thing my foot is on? It's called an accelerator. When you push down on it, it sends more gas to the engine. The whole car just takes right off. And see this thing? This steers it.

Steven Wright

Because we didn't come with a users manual there are no rules on the roles we give fear. Fear has the role we give it. We are able to empower or poison ourselves to whatever degree we want. This is the beauty of our design.

Steve Maraboli

The one sure way to conciliate a tiger is to allow oneself to be devoured.

Konrad Adenauer

We would all like to vote for the best man but he is never a candidate.
