“A motto I've adopted is, if at first you don't succeed, hide all evidence that you ever tried.”
― Billy Collins

“Never keep up with the Joneses. Drag them down to your level. It's cheaper.”
― Quentin Crisp

“Let us not be too particular. It is better to have old second-hand diamonds than none at all.”

“In its silence, a book is a challenge: it can't lull you with surging music or deafen you with screeching laugh tracks or fire gunshots in your living room; you have to listen to it in your head. A book won't move your eyes for you the way images on a screen do. It won't move your mind unless you give it your mind, or your heart unless you put your heart in it ... To read a story well is to follow it, to act it, to feel it, to become it--everything short of writing it, in fact. Reading is not interactive with a set of rules or options, as games are; reading is actual collaboration with the writer's mind. No wonder not everyone is up to it.”
― Ursula K. Le Guin
