The particular book I'll be looking at here is The Ambassador, Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Paul Kelly (?)

“I hate to be wrong. It makes me feel like a failure. Being wrong has the same affect on me as a lack of food or sleep. It lowers my entire mood. But, I need to be proved wrong sometimes, as it restores humility, and doesn't allow my ego to swell to stupidly big sizes.”
― Paul Kelly
