there is no pleasure so sweet as the pleasure of spending money but the pleasure of writing is longer. There is no denying that.

A creator is not in advance of his generation but he is the first of his contemporaries to be conscious of what is happening to his generation.

Nobody knows what I am trying to do but I do and I know when I succeed.

I wish that I was where I am.

Mostly every one is needing some one to be one listening to that one being one being one boasting.
