It's funny how important music is to my writing. I have songs that I associate with different moods, or individual stories. They help me to keep characters separate if I'm writing more than one story at a time. And sometimes I like to have music playing softly in the background to keep me motivated. That was how I used to study for tests, too, in school. It just seemed to sink in better that way.

“You don't want to be alive. You want to be in control." Control is antithetical to life. To be alive is to be battered about. To endure and adapt and keep stumbling onward despite it all.”

“If you were all alone in the universe with no one to talk to, no one with which to share the beauty of the stars, to laugh with, to touch, what would be your purpose in life? It is other life; it is love, which gives your life meaning. This is harmony. We must discover the joy of each other, the joy of challenge, the joy of growth.”

“Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid.”

“If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut”
