Follow it up, explore all around it; one discovery will lead to another, and before you know it you will have something worth thinking about to occupy... Alexander Graham Bell
If you have a story that seems worth telling, and you think you can tell it worthily, then the thing for you to do is to tell it, regardless of whether it has to do with sex, sailors or mounted policemen. Dashiell Hammett
