Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.

Seek goodness everywhere, and when it is found, bring it out of its hiding place and let it be free and unashamed.

I am enormously wise and abysmally ignorant.

If you give to a thief he cannot steal from you, and he is no longer a thief.

Seek goodness everywhere, and when it is found, bring it out of its hiding-place and let it be free and unashamed. Place in matter and in flesh the least of the values, for these are things that hold death and must pass away. Discover in all things that which shines and is beyond corruption. Encourage virtue in whatever heart it may have been driven into secrecy and sorrow by the shame and terror of the world.

I do not know what makes a writer, but it probably isn't happiness.

Nothing good ever ends.
