I think writing really helps you heal yourself. I think if you write long enough, you will be a healthy person. That is, if you write what you need to write, as opposed to what will make money, or what will make fame.

Alice Walker

The kid is scary.

Orson Scott Card

Adversity is a great teacher, but this teacher makes us pay dearly for its instruction; and often the profit we derive, is not worth the price we paid.

Jean Jacques Rousseau

Poetry's unnat'ral; no man ever talked poetry 'cept a beadle on boxin' day

Charles Dickens

Work is of two kinds: first, altering the position of matter at or near the earth's surface relative to other matter second, telling other people to do so.

Bertrand Russell

When you love you wish to do things for. You wish to sacrifice for. You wish to serve.

Ernest Hemingway

The vices we scoff at in others, laugh at us within ourselves.

Thomas Edward Brown

Farmers are philosophical. They have learned that it is less wearing to shrug than to beat their breasts.

Ruth Stout
