"You always ask if I'm okay But it's not the same as being happy"

-- Frank Turner

“You can only go to places that you will let yourself go.”
“The vast majority of artists worldwide are unrepresented, disenfranchised or otherwise don't have an opportunity to sell or have their work shown. Giving those artists access to the collector community, expanding the collector community and giving artists a chance to be discovered is the goal of iStockphoto.”
“Success comprises in itself the seeds of its own decline and sport is not spared by this law.”
“Sometimes I know what my characters are moving away from or toward; more often I just wait and see. For instance, though I knew Sinkler in 'The Trusty' was going for water, I did not know that he would meet a fetching young farm wife until I got him into her front yard.”
“You have to really dive deep back into yourself and get rid of so much modern analytical categorization. It's one of the great things poetry does.”
“What matters in a character is not whether one holds this or that opinion: what matters is how proudly one upholds it.”
“Writing is a conversation, to me. The best kind. You can't get interrupted.”
“Gluttony and satiety in food produce defiled lust, while free association with women enflames the fire of lusts ... At the time of struggle with defilement, punish your thoughts with lack of nourishment, so that you will think not of defilements, but of hunger, and reject the invitation to go visiting.”
