"The modern writer who has influenced me most is W. Somerset Maugham ."

George Orwell

“That's right... I never felt a sense of superiority because I could see spirits. And I never once thought that I could make a living or help someone with it. I just longed for a life where I couldn't see them. And I finally got what I always wanted.”
“I went to the actual SVU precinct... and got a really good sense of what it was like.”
“Terror is nothing else than justice, prompt, severe, inflexible.”
“Inspiration is the impact of a fact on a well-prepared mind”
“Beauty is meaningless until it is shared.”
“Still, the image haunted his dreams throughout the night: a lovely girl gazing at the stars, and the stars who gazed back.”

“Human education is concerned with certain changes in the intellects, characters and behavior of men, its problems being roughly included under these four topics: Aims, materials, means and methods.”
“I came to love the rhythm of the sound effects and the whole experience of listening to a story. I made a lot of stuff with my hands and so I loved being free to not watch a screen. I still love it to this day.”
