Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“It is such a mysterious place, the land of tears.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Doris Lessing
“That is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way.”
Doris Lessing

Pearl S. Buck
“The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive. To him... a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune is a tragedy, a joy is an ecstasy, a friend is a lover, a lover is a god, and failure is death. Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create -- so that
without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is creating.”
Pearl S. Buck

Mae West
“It's not the men in your life that matters, it's the life in your men.”
Mae West

Doris Lessing
“Whatever you're meant to do, do it now. The conditions are always impossible.”
Doris Lessing
