“It's helped my outlook, how I interact with people. It's made me more conscious. It's helped me be able to focus, make better decisions, think on my feet. I don't know what I'd do without it. It's my sanctuary.”

Moderation...is lukewarm tea, the devil's own brew.”
“Write to amuse? What an appalling suggestion! I write to make people anxious and miserable and to worsen their indigestion.”
