“Why are we so afraid when we think about death? Death is only dreadful for those who live in dread and fear of it. Death is not wild and terrible, if only we can be still and hold fast to God's Word. Death is not bitter, if we have not become bitter ourselves. Death is grace, the greatest gift of grace that God gives to people who believe in Him.”
― Dietrich Bonhoeffer

― Thomas Wolfe, Look Homeward, Angel

“If you want to write, start writing now in your own home town and write every day as hard as you can; do not think you have to go to Paris and wait for inspiration to strike.”

“When people say "there are other fish in the sea" I say "fuck you, she was my sea.”
