When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.

Small minds discuss people.

Hold infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in an hour.

then you'd better get what you can appreciate.

The fool?
Or the fool who follows him?

~ Mame Dennis
On this spot we must either conquer, or die with glory. There is no alternative. Though a woman, my resolution is fixed: the men, if they please, may survive with infamy, and live in bondage.
Nothing is safe from Roman pride and arrogance. They will deface the sacred and will deflower our virgins. Win the battle or perish, that is what I, a woman, will do.
~ Boudica, Iceni Queen 62CE
I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure.
I make mistakes, I am out of control, and at times hard to handle...
But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.
~ Marilyn Monroe, Actress 1926-1962
There are some books that refuse to be written. They stand their ground year after year and will not be persuaded.
It isn't because the book is not there and worth being written -- it is only because the right form of the story does not present itself.
There is only one right form for a story and if you fail to find that form the story will not tell itself.
