“To love is good, too: love being difficult. For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation...Love is a high inducement to the individual to ripen, to become something in himself, to become world for himself for another's sake, it is a great exacting claim upon him, something that chooses him out and calls him to vast things.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

“my love isn't a weapon, it's a lifeline, reach out and take hold, and don't let go!”
― Francine Rivers, Redeeming Love

“The worst thing you can do as a writer is waste people's time.”
― John Connolly

“Don't use the phone. People are never ready to answer it. Use poetry.”
― Jack Kerouac
