"I am one thing, my writings are..." - Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

“Humility has the toughest hide.”

“Art raises its head where creeds relax.”

“In every party there is one person who, through his dotingly credulous enunciation of party principles, incites the other members to defection.”

“Bob Marley isn't my name. I don't even know my name yet.”

“This whole celebrity-fame thing is interesting. I'm the same person I always was. The only difference between being famous and not being famous is that people know who you are.”

“A woman is often measured by the things she cannot control. She is measured by the way her body curves or doesn't curve, by where she is flat or straight or round. She is measured by 36-24-36 and inches and ages and numbers, by all the outside things that don’t ever add up to who she is on the inside. And so if a woman is to be measured, let her be measured by the things she can control, by who she is and who she is trying to become. Because as every woman knows, measurements are only statistics... and STATISTICS LIE.”

“It is a fact often observed, that men have written good verses under the inspiration of passion, who cannot write well under other circumstances.”

“I’m trying in all my stories to get the feeling of the actual life across—not to just depict life—or criticize it—but to actually make it alive. So that when you have read something by me you actually experience the thing. You can’t do this without putting in the bad and the ugly as well as what is beautiful. Because if it is all beautiful you can’t believe in it. Things aren’t that way.”

“A thousand things to be written had I time: had I power. A very little writing uses up my capacity for writing.”
