Quote by Roald Dahl

“The life of a writer is absolute hell compared to the life of a businessman. The writer has to force himself to work He has to make his own hours and if he doesn't go to his desk at all there is nobody to scold him...A person is a fool to become a writer. His only compensation is absolute freedom. He has no master except his own soul, and that, I am sure, is why he does it.”

“Jika maaf adalah kata yang sulit di pahami, maka kepergian adalah hal yang harus di maklumi. Aku tidak menjanjikan matahari terbit, tapi yakinlah bahwa dia disana, entah terhalang awan atau hujan. Jika hujan, yakinlah setelahnya akan ada pelangi. Sama sepertiku, aku tidak menjanjikan ada disisimu selalu. pelangi itu layaknya doa yang tidak bisa kau sentuh. Maaf selama ini aku mengganggu waktu berhargamu, terimakasih telah tinggal untuk waktu yang singkat, namun aku bangga mengenalmu, sampaikan salamku pada ibumu yang sempat bertatap muka dihalaman rumahmu. Terimakasih telah melahirkan anak penuh karakter, semoga keselamatan menyertaimu.”

“If my life were complete, it would not be my life, since it would be over. In leading my life, I am not striving for an impossible completion of who I am but for the possible and fragile coherence of who I am trying to be: to hold together and be responsive to the commitments that define who I take myself to be.”

“Equilibrium is basically when different forces achieve balance. They become equal or the same. People do this with energy. If you know this and you also know that you have power then you can choose the energy or the feeling of the room or of the group or whatever. Basically, you just feel the feelings really strongly and hold it no matter what is going on around you and no matter what anyone else around you feels like.”
