“There is no friend as loyal as a book.”
― Ernest Hemingway

“Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it.
Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.”
― William Faulkner

“A clock that is moving through space at a very fast speed does not tick at the same rate as a slow-moving watch gently attached to your wrist as you stroll on a tropical beach. The idea of a universal time - a godlike clock that could somehow sit outside our universe and measure, in one go, the movement of everything in it, how its evolution unfolds, how old it is and all that - does not exist.”
― Christophe Galfard, The Universe in Your Hand: A Journey Through Space, Time, and Beyond

“Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.”
― Ernest Hemingway, The Garden of Eden
