You are only what you are when no one is looking.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of authenticity and integrity. It suggests that one's true character is revealed not when they are in the presence of others and aware of being observed, but rather in those moments of solitude when no audience exists. It encourages individuals to remain true to themselves and their values even when there is no external pressure or scrutiny. It highlights the idea that it is essential to act with integrity, not solely for the sake of appearances or the approval of others, but because it reflects one's genuine self.

These tenses--past, present and future--are not the tenses of time; they are tenses of the mind. That which is no longer before the mind becomes the past.

I review novels to make money, because it is easier for a sluggard to write an article a fortnight than a book a year, because the writer is soothed by the opiate of action, the crank by posing as a good journalist, and having an air hole.
