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

Read anything I write for the pleasure of reading it. Whatever else you find will be the measure of what you brought to the reading.

Once writing has become your major vice and greatest pleasure only death can stop it. Financial security then is a great help as it keeps you from worrying.

I wish I had died before I ever loved anyone but her.

Until you're grown-up they send you to reform school. After you're grown-up they send you to the penitentiary.

When you work hard all day with your head and know you must work again the next day what else can change your ideas and make them run on a different plane like whisky?

If you stop complaining and asking for what you never will get, you will have a good life. A good life is not measured by any biblical span.
