"The further I get, the further I want to go"

-- Nas

“I really become the characters when I'm writing them. I'll become one or two of them more than others, I'm consistent that way.”
“There never yet have been, nor are there now, too many good books.”
“How many more years will our educators continue to lecture us on the evils of whipping children until they bring home high grades? Year after year we listen to these fellows tell us that it is not the grade that counts but the development of the child's personality. After the lecture they go back to all the best schools and reject our children because they have C averages.”
“Honor your humanness and all of your feelings - the messy ones, the growing pains, the ache - because we can't have the dark without the light.”
“There's still a lot I'm angry about, a lot of human behaviour that's appalling and despicable, but you choose what you can fight against. I always thought if I could just put something in words perfectly enough, people would get the idea and it would change things.”
“Life is short, and potential studies infinite. We have a much better chance of accomplishing something significant when we follow our passionate interests and work in areas of deepest personal meaning.”
