“Seeking those elusive individuals is like mining for rare gems. It will take hard work, patience, and a persistent attitude. To find that rich seam of colourful stones, you will have to chip through dirt and rock. You will have to learn how to hold rubble in your hands and see the fortune inside.” HardHandsIndividualAttitudeRichRocksHard WorkStonesFortuneSeekingDirtChipsPersistentElusiveGemsMiningRubbleColourful Author:Chris Murray
“Things seem to be at a boiling point all the time. In fact, it has been that way my whole life. I find it interesting, and I like the fact that the emotions are in your face all the time. You always know where you stand. None of that "we don't have any racial problems here" attitude that you get, say, up north. All of this is rich fodder for a crime novelist.” KnowsWayHas BeensWholeFactsProblemSeemsFacesInterestingEmotionAttitudeRichCrimeWhole LifeNovelistsYour FaceBoilingWhere You StandFodderUp NorthBoiling Point Author:George Pelecanos

“When greedy people are given gold, they are bitter that they haven't gotten jewels; when they are made barons they are resentful that they haven't been made lords. Though powerful and rich, their attitude is that of beggars. For those who know how to be content, simple fare is more delicious than rich delicacies, a cloth coat is warmer than fox fur, and an ordinary citizen does not defer to a king or a lord.” PeopleKnowsDoeMadeGivenSimplePowerfulAttitudeLordKnow HowRichHavensKingsCitizensOrdinaryGoldBitterTaoismFoxesCoatsGreedyDeliciousJewelsBeggarFurDelicacyResentfulOrdinary CitizensGreedy People Author:Zicheng Hong
