The world is a great symphony, and we are the notes.

"Writing is an act of courage, a way to confront the world and our place within it."

"The world is a text, and we are all its readers and writers."

This is true: It’s hard to cheat an honest man.

I think it's really important to be able to laugh at yourself and not take yourself too seriously.

No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.
