"Perhaps it is only when people are..." - Quote by George Orwell

“For a creative writer possession of the 'truth' is less important than emotional sincerity.”

“It was soon noticed that when ever there was work to be done the cat could never be found.”

“Writing a book is a horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness.”

“When one door closes, another one opens, but sometimes we wait too long looking at the closed door, and never realize that another door has been opened.”

“Grieve not; though the journey of life be bitter, and the end unseen, there is no road which does not lead to an end.”

“No longer riding on the merry-go-round, I just had to let it go.”

“Just when you think it can't get any worse, it can. And just when you think it can't get any better, it can.”

“The pessimist waits for better times, and expects to keep on waiting; the optimist goes to work with the best that is at hand now, and proceeds to create better times.”

“History is but the record of crimes and misfortunes. L'histoire n'est que le tableau des crimes et des malheurs”
