""I don't know" is actually a legitimate answer that you're allowed to say. You're allowed to say, "I don't know," and you're allowed to ask for as much time as you need until you do know. And if somebody doesn't want to give you that
time, they're allowed to leave. But you're allowed to sit with your "I don't know." And I never sat with it because it was uncomfortable. Nobody likes that place." — May 12, 2024 10:58PM

Enthusiasm, hell. He had unicorns dancing around in his brain, poking holes in his sanity.

“If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”

“... a full moon shimmered over central Louisiana. This was no rinky-dink moon. This was a moon you had to curtsy to. A big, heavy, mysterious, beautiful, bossy moon. The kind you want to serve things to on a silver platter.”
