Do the hardest thing on earth for you. ACT YOURSELF.

The mind I love must have wild places.

If you wish to live, you must first attend your own funeral.

But one day we shall be rich, and the next poor. One day we shall dine in a palace and the next we'll sit in a forest and toast mushrooms on a hatpin.

Regret is an appalling waste of energy, and no one who intends to be a writer can afford to indulge in it.

There is no feeling to be compared with the feeling of having written and finished a story.

Make it a rule of life never to regret and never to look back.
