Reading for the 2nd time
As Joan Didion so famously said, “I write entirely to find out what I’m thinking, what I’m looking at, what I see, and what it means. What I want and what I fear.”
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

“The truth is, I often like women. I like their unconventionality. I like their completeness. I like their anonymity.”

“Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.”

―
“If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.”

“Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.”
