It's always too early to quit.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Know or listen to those who know.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
You never know what motivates you.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Because at bottom, I'm interested in fear, and in courage and cowardice and these are easier to get at through fiction, where you can enter people's heads.
