More on Passion
“Things you like to do should be a hobby of yours, but things the world does should be a business of yours.”
“Writing is like sex. You have to save your love for the love object. If you go around spouting about your idea, there'll be no "charge" left. You can't father children that way.”
“I love your daughter fondly, dearly, disinterestedly, devotedly. If ever there were love in the world, I love her.”
More on Life
“Raise your standards for the one thing over which you have complete control--yourse lf. It means you're committed to being intelligent, flexible, and creative enough to consistently find a way to look at your life in a fashion that makes any experience enriching.”
“Smile first thing in the morning. Get it over with.”
“A world where everything was easy would be a nursery for babies, but not at all a fit place for men.”
