“The best, and perhaps only, method to reliably pinpoint ambiguities in your writing is by giving it to someone else to read.”
Peter Yang, The Art of Writing: Four Principles for Great Writing that Everyone Needs to Know

“It is often more challenging to devise an intricate outline of a piece of writing than it is to write it. Form a habit of planning your pieces, if only for five to ten minutes. Ask yourself what justifies your writing’s existence. Once you know why you’re writing something, it becomes much easier to know how you’re going to write it.”
Peter Yang, The Art of Writing: Four Principles for Great Writing that Everyone Needs to Know

“clear: Everyone can be a writer, if they so choose. What you write is not important—writers can write novels, technical manuals, poetry, journal entries, or scientific papers. To be a writer, you simply need to write.”
Peter Yang, The Art of Writing: Four Principles for Great Writing that Everyone Needs to Know

“For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, but lose his soul?" -Mark 8:36”
Gospel of Mark

“When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.”
Mark Twain

“We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done.”
Alan Turing, Computing machinery and intelligence

“I was ashamed of myself when I realised life was a costume party and I attended with my real face”
Franz Kafka

“A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion”
Francis Bacon
