Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them.
I think literature is best when it’s voicing what we would prefer not to talk about.
my goals are to be so intimidatingly hot that people are surprised at how nice I am when i talk to them
