BioI adore the power behind a resonant quotation, and I often find it difficult to describe the way I feel about myself. And so I let others speak for me.
"The only thing I was fit for was to be a writer, and this notion rested solely on my suspicion that I would never be fit for real work, and that writing didn't require any."
-Russell Baker
“Love all, trust a few. Do wrong to none.”
-W. Shakespeare, “All’s Well That Ends Well”
“When you look at yourself from a universal standpoint, something inside always reminds or informs you that there are bigger and better things to worry about.”
-Albert Einstein, “The World as I See It”
“Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.”
–Henry David Thoreau
“If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.”
-Oscar Wilde
