“What to Accept The fact of mountains. The actuality Of any stone — by kicking, if necessary. The need to ignore stupid people, While restraining one's natural impulse To murder them. The change from your dollar, Be it no more than a penny, For without a pretense of universal penury There can be no honor between rich and poor. Love, unconditionally, or until proven false. The inevitability of cancer and/or Heart disease. The dialogue as written, Once you've taken the role. Failure, Gracefully. Any hospitality You're willing to return. The air Each city offers you to breathe. The latest hit. Assistance. All accidents. The end.”

“Literature is as old as speech. It grew out of human need for it and it has not changed except to become more needed. The skalds, the bards, the writers are not separate and exclusive. From the beginning, their functions, their duties, and their responsibilities have been decreed by our species... the writer is delegated to declare and to celebrate man's proven capacity for greatness of heart and spirit - for gallantry in defeat, for courage, compassion and love. In the endless war against weakness and despair, these are the bright rally flags of hope and of emulation. I hold that a writer who does not passionately believe in the perfectibility of man has no dedication nor any membership in literature.”

“Mahirap tanggapin ang katotohanan. May mga pagkakataon na kinakailangan mong dumaan sa mga karanasanang magtuturo sa yo ng tama. Minsan masasaktan ka lalo at minsan din ay lalo mo lang mauunawaan ang tunay dahilan kung bakit nangyayari ang mga naranasan at nararanasan mo. Maaaring sa pamamagitan ng (mga) tao, (mga) bagay, o (mga) pangyayari. Ang pinakamainam na lang na gawin ay buksan ang puso at iproseso sa isip na ang lahat ng ito ay magandang idinulot at maidudulot sa buhay mo.”
