"The things I do for love."

-- George R. R. Martin

“Modesty is of no use to a beggar.”
“You knew when a woman loves you like that, she can love you with every card in the deck and then pull a knife across your throat the next morning.”
“If we are going to find our way out of shame and back to each other, vulnerability is the path and courage is the light. To set down those lists of *what we're supposed to be* is brave. To love ourselves and support each other in the process of becoming real is perhaps the greatest single act of daring greatly.”
“Life is essentially a cheat and its conditions are those of defeat; the redeeming things are not happiness and pleasure but the deeper satisfactions that come out of struggle.”
“But each time I seemed to be climbing into a roller coaster and finding myself coming through the downhill run with that sort of dazed feeling that we all know.”

“Like all great rationalists you believed in things that were twice as incredible as theology.”

“We only have one life to live. Since everybody has the potential to be successful, I hope we'll all take an action and actually live it.”
“I'm obviously an American citizen. My parents are American citizens. But I'm not looked at as an American.”
