"That's the best part. The how."

-- Jessi Kirby

“Trouble can often be traced to a single strong individual â€” the stirrer, the arrogant underling, the poisoner of goodwill. If you allow such people room to operate, others will succumb to their influence. Do not wait for the troubles they cause to multiply, do not try to negotiate with them â€”Â they are irredeemable. Neutralize their influence by isolating or banishing them. Strike at the source of the trouble and the sheep will scatter.”
“The prose of Joe Pulver can take its place with that of the masters of our genre â€“ E.A. Poe, H.P. Lovecraft, Ramsey Campbell, Thomas Ligotti â€“ while his imaginative reach is something uniquely his own.”
“We are more successfully healed by the vis medicatrix naturae (healing power of nature) than by the most ingenious medical application.”
“Hard conditions of life are indispensable to bringing out the best in human personality.”
“I think most corporate executives are good honorable honest men and women who do good work.”
“This morning the electricity came on for a few minutes, and when it did, Jonny said, "Hey, it's a black-on." This is what passes for humor around here.”
“Words were dangerous when loosed. They were more powerful than cannon and more unpredictable than storms. They could turn menâ€™s heads inside out and warp their destinies. They could pick up kingdoms and shake them until they rattled.”

“..if you dread tomorrow, it's because you don't know how to build the present, you tell yourself you can deal with it tomorrow, and it's a lost cause anyway because tomorrow always ends up becoming today, don't you see?”
