[Rumors are a] vehicle for anxieties and aspirations that may not be openly expressed.

Great ideas are fish in a stream. Your pen/pencil is a spear. If you don't spear them, they'll swim on by. Be ready.

[Rumors are a] vehicle for anxieties and aspirations that may not be openly expressed.

As your life goes on you should gain a deeper understanding of the world and the people moving through it; but that might be asking too much.

Secrets are always never as well kept as people think they are. More often than not when you reveal something, especially the bigger it is, people always had some inkling, or they're like, "Well, yeah, of course."

The sad thing is that often when you expose your secrets and become more honest with yourself, you find the reaction from the outside world is more complicated than the intense guilt you yourself have inflicted.

I certainly am not afraid of hard work. Hard work is only hard if you are not passionate about what you are doing.
