    Ernest Hemingway
    “You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind and the cold, wintery light.

When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person died for no reason.”

If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.”
    Ernest Hemingway

    Ray Bradbury
    “The books are to remind us what asses and fool we are. They're Caeser's praetorian guard, whispering as the parade roars down the avenue, "Remember, Caeser, thou art mortal." Most of us can't rush around, talking to everyone, know all the cities of the world, we haven't time, money or that many friends. The things you're looking for, Montag, are in the world, but the only way the average chap will ever see ninety-nine per cent of them is in a book. Don't ask for guarantees. And don't look to be saved in any one thing, person, machine, or library. Do your own bit of saving, and if you drown, at least die knowing you were headed for shore.”
    Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

    and there's nothing worse
    than too late”
    Charles Bukowski
