I can write best in the silence and solitude of the night, when everyone has retired.
Never insult seven men when all your packing is a six-shooter.
I arise full of eagerness and energy, knowing well what achievement lies ahead of me.
I hope I have found myself, my work, my happiness - under the light of the western skies.
Work is my salvation. It changes my moods.
I confess that reading proofs is a pleasure. It stimulates and inspires me.
