Grammar is...the pole you grab to get your thoughts up on their feet and walking.

Image
I understand from my own work that haste makes waste. But I also understand that ... the creative spark dims, and then death puts it out. William Shakespeare, for instance, hasn’t produced a new play for 400 years. That, my friends, is a long dry spell.

The concept of dreaming is known to the waking mind but to the dreamer there is no waking, no real world, no sanity there is only the screaming bedlam of sleep.

What happens to the wide-eyed observer when the window between reality and unreality breaks and the glass begins to fly?
Stephen King

When you write a book, you spend day after day scanning and identifying the trees. When you’re done, you have to step back and look at the forest.

We never cease wanting what we want, whether it's good for us or not.
