"You can be loved by your family, your mate, and your friends yet not love yourself. You can be admired by your associates yet regard yourself as worthless. You can project an image of assurance and poise that fools almost everyone yet secretly tremble with a sense of inadequacy. You can fulfill the expectations of others yet fail your own. You can win every honor yet feel that you have accomplished nothing. What shall it profit a person to gain the esteem of the whole world yet lose his or her own?" --

“I've always been timid. I wait for the mating signal, yet I want to show my interest, but I'm too ***** bashful to go for it! I have no sympathy for wolves. Why can't a man wait and see if there is any interest in them? Every woman wants to be pursued, it's a courting dance, a mating game and it should be that way, played out. The world is full of creeps.”
“Independent publishing gives everyone a voice, and those with a voice to which people inherently want to listen will find a way to the top.”

“It has been just so in all my inventions. The first step is an intuition-and comes with a burst, then difficulties arise.
