"Breakdowns come, and breakdowns go...." - Quote by Paul Simon

“Maybe the heart is part of the mist.And that's all that there is or could ever exist.Maybe and maybe and maybe some more.Maybe's the exit that I'm looking for.”

“I know a man He came from my home town He wore his passion for his woman Like a thorny crown He said "Dolores I live in fear My love for you's so overpowering I'm afraid that I will disappear”

“I'm not in it for the money. I like music. I love to write music. I can't imagine myself not playing or singing or writing. It would just drive me crazy if I didn't.”

“Disappointment is just the chance to start once more, this time all the more insightfully.”

“It does not matter how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get up.”

“If you write a hundred short stories and they're all bad, that doesn't mean you've failed. You fail only if you stop writing.”

“Adversity introduces a man to himself.”

“In prosperous fortunes be modest and wise, The greatest may fall, and the lowest may rise: But insolent People that fall in disgrace, Are wretched and nobody pities their Case.”

“So each man, like each plant, has his parasites. A strong, astringent, bilious nature has more truculent enemies than the slugs and moths that fret my leaves. Such a one has curculios, borers, knife-worms; a swindler ate him first, then a client, then a quack, then smooth, plausible gentlemen, bitter and selfish as Moloch.”
