Even if you forget everything else I want you to always remember that you are a person of value, and you have a friend who loved you enough to give you his most valued possession.

The world is not a rational place.

Fun, like champagne bubbles, can't completely fill you up.

Experiencing life through a book can help you learn without all the pain of going through the experiences first hand.

Look inside yourself and you'll find a world of things (a world of your own experiences)worth writing about.

When people's emotions are involved they don't want to listen.

It seems to me that a man who is incapable of humor is capable of cruelty.
