“Playwrights are the most gregarious writers - to get our work done, we need actors, directors, set designers.”
“The secret of it all, is to write in the gush, the throb, the flood, of the moment â€“ to put things down without deliberation â€“ without worrying about their style â€“ without waiting for a fit time or place. I always worked that way. I took the first scrap of paper, the first doorstep, the first desk, and wrote â€“ wrote, wroteâ€¦By writing at the instant the very heartbeat of life is caught.”
“In short, I will preach it [the Word], teach it, write it, but I will constrain no man by force, for faith must come freely without compulsion. Take myself as an example. I opposed indulgences and all the papists, but never with force. I simply taught, preached, and wrote God's Word; otherwise I did nothing. And while I slept, or drank Wittenberg beer with my friends Philip and Amsdorf, the Word so greatly weakened the papacy that no prince or emperor ever inflicted such losses upon it. I did nothing; the Word did everything.”

“God is preparing you for greater things. He's going to take you further than you thought possible, so don't be surprised when He asks you to think better of yourself and to act accordingly.”
“There's major changes happening with technology and economics.

In fact, they're taking such safe measures that they're shooting themselves in the foot.”
