Harlan Ellison
“I know that pain is the most important thing in the universes. Greater than survival, greater than love, greater even than the beauty it brings about. For without pain, there can be no pleasure. Without sadness, there can be no happiness. Without misery there can be no beauty. And without these, life is endless, hopeless, doomed and damned.
Adult. You have become adult.”
Harlan Ellison, Paingod and Other Delusions

Henry Miller
“The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself”
Henry Miller

Isaac Asimov
“I write for the same reason I breathe - because if I didn't, I would die.”
Isaac Asimov

Epictetus
“If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid.”
Epictetus

Harlan Ellison
“K is for "Kenghis Khan"; He was a very nice person. History has no record of him. There is a moral in that, somewhere.”
Harlan Ellison
