By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Only the educated are free.
Know or listen to those who know.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Never complain and never explain.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
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.
