Falling in love is the easiest thing in the world. It’s standing in love that matters Picture Quote #1

The dimensions of a work of art are seldom realized by the author until the work is accomplished. It is like a flowering dream. Ideas grow, budding silently, and there are a thousand illuminations coming day by day as the work progresses. A seed grows in writing as in nature. The seed of the idea is developed by both labor and the unconscious, and the struggle that goes on between them Picture Quote #1

I meditated on love and reasoned it out. I realized what is wrong with us. Men fall in love for the first time. And what do they fall in love with?... They fall in love with a woman. They start at the wrong end of love. They begin at the climax. Can you wonder it is so miserable? Do you know how men should love? A tree. A rock. A cloud Picture Quote #1

Justice itself is a chimera, a delusion. Justice is not a flat yardstick, applied in equal measure to an equal situation Picture Quote #1

There are all these people here I don’t know by sight or by name. And we pass alongside each other and don’t have any connection. And they don’t know me and I don’t know them. And now I’m leaving town and there are all these people I will never know Picture Quote #1

Love is the main generator of all good writing... Love, passion, compassion, are all welded together Picture Quote #1
