There is only one way: Go within. Search for the cause, find the impetus that bids you write. Put it to this test: Does it stretch out its roots in the deepest place of your heart? Can you avow that you would die if you were forbidden to write? Above all, in the most silent hour of your night, ask yourself this: Must I write? Dig deep into yourself for a true answer. And if it should ring its assent, if you can confidently meet this serious question with a simple, I must, then build your life upon it. It has become your necessity. Your life, in even the most mundane and least significant hour, must become a sign, a testimony to this urge.
Your worthiness is inherent. You don't need to earn it; you just need to recognize it.
The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it.
Looking at cleavage is like looking into the Sun. You don't stare at it.
When a day passes, it is no longer there. What remains of it? Nothing more than a story.
Ships don’t sink because of the water around them; ships sink because of the water that gets in them. Don’t let what’s happening around you get inside you and weigh you down.
