Hence a truer measure in the final judgment of the nations. Babylon violated diminishes Alexander; Rome enslaved diminishes Caesar; massacred... Victor Hugo

Thanksgiving dinner's sad and thankless. Christmas dinner's dark and blue. When you stop and try to see it From the turkey's point of view. Sunday dinner isn't sunny. Easter feasts are just bad luck.

Shel Silverstein
Despite a lack of natural ability, I did have the one element necessary to all early creativity: navet, that fabulous quality that keeps you from knowing just how unsuited you are for what you are about to do. Steve Martin

If it were self-indulgence for him to cut and polish his semiprecious memories, and yet seem like danger, like a struggle he was... John Crowley
I know how bad you boys feel, but the sun will still come up tomorrow. And when it does, you 'll feel better. When the sun comes up the day after tomorrow, a little better still.
