“That is the first thing to learn â€” not to seek. When you seek you are really only window-shopping. The question of whether or not there is a God or truth or reality, or whatever you like to call it, can never be answered by books, by priests, philosophers or saviours.

To understand yourself is the beginning of wisdom.”

Then you're having a great time in the doing and that's what it's all about. If you don't enjoy the doing, then do something else.”
“All a writer has to do to get a woman is to say he's a writer. It's an aphrodisiac.”
