…And here are some things I like for the weekend:

“The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubt while the stupid ones are full of confidence.” Charles Bukowski

“It’s like you see right through me and make everything easier.” Ray LaMontagne

“Oh honey, just the mention of your name
Turns the flicker to a flame” -Dorothy Moore, "Misty Blue"

"Somebody asked me: "What do you do? How do you write, create?" You don't, I told them. You don't try. That's very important: not to try, either for Cadillacs, creation or immortality. You wait, and if nothing happens, you wait some more. It's like a bug high on the wall. You wait for it to come to you. When it gets close enough you reach out, slap out and kill it. Or if you like its looks, you make a pet out of it." - Charles Bukowski

"There is a pain—so utter—

It swallows substance up"

-Emily Dickinson

“Muhammad Ali knows how to be a friend, and that’s one of the hardest things to come by.” Bill Russell

“I really think everything is achievable in life.” Novak Djokovic

"There is no such thing as happiness. Life bends joy and pain, beauty and ugliness, in such a way that no one may isolate them. No one should want to." Jean Toomer

“Somebody once said to me if you want to be understood, don’t write fiction.” Mary Gaitskill

“Allow yourself to go and do it wrong.  Don’t always expect to do it right.  It will prevent you from doing anything.” Darren Hardy
