“I don't believe in "original sin." I don't believe in "guilt." I don't believe in villains or heroes - only right or wrong ways that individuals have taken, not by choice but by necessity or by certain still-uncomprehended influences in themselves, their circumstances, and their antecedents.

― Tennessee Williams, A Streetcar Named Desire

“I decided that I would do my best in the future not to write books just for money. If you didn't get the money then you didn't have anything. If I did the work I was proud of and I didn't get the money, at least I'd have the work.”
― Neil Gaiman, Make Good Art

“Often you will discover that the harder you work, and the more wisely you work, the luckier you get. But there is luck, and it helps.”
