John Wayne
“All battles are fought by scared men who'd rather be some place else.”
― John Wayne

“I still love the people I’ve loved, even if I cross the street to avoid them.”
― Uma Thurman

Sheila Heti
“Most people live their entire lives with their clothes on, and even if they wanted to, couldn't take them off. Then there are those who cannot put them on. They are the ones who live their lives not just as people but as examples of people. They are destined to expose every part of themselves, so the rest of us can know what it means to be a human.

Most people lead their private lives. They have been given a natural modesty that feels to them like morality, but it's not -- it's luck. They shake their heads at the people with their clothes off rather than learning about human life from their example, but they are wrong to act so superior. Some of us have to be naked, so the rest can be exempted by fate.”
― Sheila Heti, How Should a Person Be?

Wayne W. Dyer
“Don't die with your music still in you.”
― Wayne W. Dyer
