“Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option.”
― Mark Twain

“If people don't occasionally walk away from you shaking their heads, you're doing something wrong.”
― John Gierach

“Writers remember everything...especially the hurts. Strip a writer to the buff, point to the scars, and he'll tell you the story of each small one. From the big ones you get novels. A little talent is a nice thing to have if you want to be a writer, but the only real requirement is the ability to remember the story of every scar.
Art consists of the persistence of memory.”
― Stephen King, Misery
