“Constantly
stopping to explain oneself may expand into a frustrating burden for the rare
individual, so ceasing to do so is like finally dropping the weights and
sprinting towards his goals. Those who insincerely misunderstand, who
intentionally distort the motives of a pure-intentioned individual, then, no
longer have the opportunity to block his path; instead, they are the ones left
to stand on the sidelines shouting frustratedly in the wind of his trail.”

“Then
what is good? The obsessive interest in human affairs, plus a certain amount of
compassion and moral conviction, that first made the experience of living
something that must be translated into pigment or music or bodily movement or
poetry or prose or anything that's dynamic and expressivee--that's what's good
for you if you're at all serious in your aims. William Saroyan wrote a great
play on this theme, that purity of heart is the one success worth having.
"In the time of your life--live!" That time is short and it doesn't
return again. It is slipping away while I write this and while you read it, the
monosyllable of the clock is Loss, loss, loss, unless you devote your heart to
its opposition.”
―
Tennessee Williams
“While
intent is the seed of manifestation, action is the water that nourishes the
