Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know
American journalist, novelist, short-story writer, and noted sportsman.
As a writer, you should not judge, you should understand
Never confuse movement with action
Courage is grace under pressure
When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen
The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them
There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed
To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all
Let yourself be drawn by the stronger pull of that which you truly love
Take care of your cents: Dollars will take care of themselves
Both optimists and pessimists contribute to society. The optimist invents the aeroplane, the pessimist the parachute
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once
