“The advice I continually give to young writers is this, "Learn to paint pictures with words." Not just once upon a time, but ... In the long secret dust of ages, beneath a blue forgotten sky, where trade winds caress the sun bleached shores of unknown realms ... See, as much as there are words in poetry, there is a poetry in words. Use it, stay faithful to the path you have set your heart upon and follow it.” GivingWritingHeartLongUseAgeYoungSecretSunPathSkyAdviceWindBlueTradePaintForgottenDustFaithfulRealmsShoreOnce Upon A TimeCaressYoung Writers Author:Brian Jacques
“We do not choose to be born.We do not--most of us, choose to die, or the times or conditions of our death. But within all this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we shall live--Courageously or in cowardice, Honorably or dishonorably, With purpose or adrift. We decide what is important and what is trivial. What makes us significant is what we DO, Or REFUSE TO DO. WE DECIDE and WE CHOOSE--and so we give definition to our lives.” GivingImportantPurposeDiesBornOur LivesConditionsDefinitionsRefuseSignificantRealmsCowardiceAdrift Author:Joseph Epstein
