Shel Silverstein
“May I ask you if you've noticed,
May I ask you if you've seen.
My minnow Minnie
Who was swimmin'
In you Ovaltine?
For you've gone and drunk it up, dear,
And she isn't in the cup, dear.
And she's nowhere to be found, dear.
Do you think that she has drowned, dear?”
Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends

“I had to learn a new way of playing. I had to practice a lot, and just find ways around the limitations. So it was a bad idea to break my hand.

You said you were doing a lot of cocaine. Did that affect your songwriting?

No. I think it affected my breaking my hand.”
Tom Petty, Conversations With Tom Petty

Thomas More
“One of the greatest problems of our time is that many are schooled but few are educated.”
Thomas More, Selected Writings

Peter Straub
“...the materials of genre - specifically the paired genres of horror and the fantastic - in no way require the constrictions of formulaic treatment, and in fact naturally extend and evolve into the methods and concerns of its wider context, general literature.”
Peter Straub (Author), Poe's Children: The New Horror

Ken Kesey
“He knew you can't really be strong until you can see a funny side of things.”
Ken Kesey, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
