"I am apparently gentle, unstable, and full of pretenses.Â I will die a poet killed by the nonpoets, will renounce no dream, resign myself to no ugliness, accept nothing of the world but the one I made myself.Â I wrote, lived, loved like Don Quixote, and on the day of my death I will say: â€˜Excuse me, it was all a dream,â€™ and by that time I may have found one who will say: â€˜Not at all, it was true, absolutely true.â€™"

-- Anais Nin
