It is no loss to mankind when one writer decides to call it a day. When a tree falls in the forest, who cares but the monkeys? Picture Quote #1

It’s been my habit of mind, over these years, to understand that every situation in which human beings are involved can be turned on its head. Everything someone assures me to be true might not be. Every pillar of belief the world rests on may or may not be about to explode. Most things don’t stay the way they are very long. Knowing this, however, has not made me cynical. Cynical means believing that good isn’t possible; and I know for a fact that good is. I simply take nothing for granted and try to be ready for the change that’s soon to come Picture Quote #1

Humans generally get out the gist of what they need to say right at the beginning, then spend forever qualifying, contradicting, burnishing or taking important things back. Yor rareley miss anything by cutting most people off after two sentences Picture Quote #1

I think once you love somebody, you love somebody; that’s just how it is Picture Quote #1

The art of living your life has a lot to do with getting over loss. The less the past haunts you, the better Picture Quote #1
