It is as if Little Red Riding Hood had asked the wolf: ‘Dear Grandmother, what is the truth for ‘ And the wolf had replied: ‘The truth helps me tell you better lies.

Sit down before fact as a little child, be prepared to give up every preconceived notion, follow humbly wherever and to whatever abysses nature leads, or you shall learn nothing. I have only begun to learn content and peace of mind since I have resolved at all risks to do this.

No, Susanna, ‘ he said. ‘I cannot love you just a little. If that’s what you want, you must find a different man.’ His green eyes were breathtaking in their intensity. His thumb brushed her bottom lip. ‘Because I can only love you entirely. With everything I am, and everything I ever will be. Body, mind, heart, soul.

Personally, if I were trying to discourage people from smoking, my sign would be a little different. In fact, I might even go too far in the opposite direction. My sign would say something like, ‘Smoke if you wish. But if you do, be prepared for the following series of events: First, we will confiscate your cigarette and extinguish it somewhere on the surface of your skin. We will then run you nicotine-stained fingers through a paper shredder and throw them into the street, where wild dogs will swallow them and then regurgitate them into the sewers, so that infected rats can further soil them before they’re flushed out to sea with the rest of the city’s filth. After such time, we will sysematically seek out your friends and loved one and destroy their lives.’
Wouldn’t you like to see a sign like that

I’m not a big fan of inspiration. I’m too old to sit and wait for the muse to give me a little kiss… I write a lot, and I’m not afraid to make mistakes or to write badly. I can alsways fix something weak and dull. But I can’t fix a blank page.
