If a poem you would write,
Now's the time!
Ne'er was epic yet or sonnet
Captured but by leaping on it;
Pegasus depend upon it,

Huge cloudy symbols of a high...

Straight to the mark, and not from bows half bent,
But with the utmost tension of the thong?
Where are the stately argosies of song,
Whose rushing keels...

Certainly the most destructive vice that a person can have, more than pride, which is supposedly the number one of the cardinal sins… Is self pity.
Self pity will destroy relationships. It will destroy everything that’s good.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness… That most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, “Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?”...

Sometimes life is hard. Things go wrong.
In life and in love and in business and in friendships and in health and in all other ways that life can go wrong.
And when things get tough, this is what you should do; make good art.
