I have begun in old age to understand...that we seldom if ever realize how generous we are to ourselves, and just how stingy with others.
I must play the instrument I've got.
I pretended not to understand. One of life's hardest jobs, to make a quick understanding slow. I think I succeeded, thought Herzog.
I don't know exactly how it's done. I let it alone a good deal.
A writer is a reader moved to emulation.
Bringing people into the here-and-now. The real universe. That's the present moment. The past is no good to us. The future is full of anxiety. Only the present is real--the here-and-now. Seize the day.
