I never cease being dumbfounded by the unbelievable things people believe.

Every writer is a narcissist. This does not mean that he is vain; it only means that he is hopelessly self-absorbed.

The writer wants to be understood much more than he wants to be respected or praised or even loved. And that, perhaps, is what makes him different from others.

The purpose of life is not to be happy, the purpose of life is to matter.

The purpose of life is to matter, to be productive, to have it make a difference that you lived at all-using the talents that God has given you for the betterment of others.

First-rate people hire first-rate people; second-rate people hire third-rate people.
