Those who don’t build must burn. It’s as old as history and juvenile delinquents Picture Quote #1

Poetry expands the senses and keeps them in prime condition. It keeps you aware of your nose, your eye, your ear, your tongue, your hand Picture Quote #1

I’m the thing you most desire, you represent the thing I least desire, death. It’s just the opposite of love Picture Quote #1

Just write every day of your life. Read intensely. Then see what happens. Most of my friends who are put on that diet have very pleasant careers Picture Quote #1

When I graduated from high school I couldn’t go to college, so I went to the library 3 days a week for 10 years Picture Quote #1

All you umpires, back to the bleachers. Referees, hit the showers. It’s my game. I pitch, I hit, I catch. I run the bases. At sunset, I’ve won or lost. At sunrise, I’m out again, giving it the old try Picture Quote #1

Reading is at the center of our lives. The library is our brain. Without the library, you have no civilization Picture Quote #1

If you write a hundred short stories and they’re all bad, that doesn’t mean you’ve failed. You fail only if you stop writing Picture Quote #1

You will have to write and put away or burn a lot of material before you are comfortable in this medium. You might as well start now and get the work done. For I believe that eventually quantity will make for quality Picture Quote #1

Tell us again, for we forget, that work done without love is stillborn, mindless, and lost in the very hour of its deliverance Picture Quote #1

Like every beginner, I have thought you could beat, pummel and thrash an idea into existence. Under such treatment, of course, any decent idea folds up its paws, turns on its back, fixes its eyes on eternity, and dies Picture Quote #1

I’m not really dying today. No person ever died that had a family. I’ll be around a long time. A thousand years from now, a whole township of my offspring will be biting sour apples in the gumwood shade Picture Quote #1
