“Writing simply means no dependent clauses, no dangling things, no flashbacks, and keeping the subject near the predicate. We throw in as many fresh words we can get away with.

“You can think about red. You can think about pink. You can think up a horse. Oh, the THINKS you can think!”

“And when they played they really played. And when they worked they really worked.”

“I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint”

“If you have something about yourself that's different, you're lucky. It's not a curse.”

“It is only by doing things others have not that one can advance.”

“The scary truth is 96 percent of mutual funds fail to match the market, and the 4 percent that do, they're always changing.”

“In proportion as the bourgeoisie, i.e., capital, is developed, in the same proportion is the proletariat, the modern working class, developed - a class of labourers, who live only so long as they find work, and who find work only so long as their labour increases capital. These labourers, who must sell themselves piecemeal, are a commodity, like every other article of commerce, and are consequently exposed to all the vicissitudes of competition, to all the fluctuations of the market.”
