“I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen.”
“The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.”
“Never mistake motion for action.”
“The shortest answer is doing the thing.”
“The first draft of anything is shit”
“The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places.”
“The man who has begun to live more seriously within begins to live more simply without.”
“Cowardice … is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination.”
“The writer’s job is not to judge, but to seek to understand.”
