“Part of writing a novel is being willing to leap into the blackness. You have very little idea, really, of what's going to happen. You have a broad sense, maybe, but it's this rash leap. It's like spelunking. You kind of create the right path for yourself. But, boy, are there so many points at which you think, absolutely, I'm going down the wrong hole here. And I can't get back to the right hole. I'm not going to be able to get this section back to the right hole - so I'm just going to have to cut it.” ThinkingWritingKindLittlesI CanIdeasHappensAbleBoysNovelPathCuttingWillingHolesLeapGet BackBroadsSectionsBlacknessRight Path Author:Chang-Rae Lee
“There's so much benevolence on helping your fellow person. And the morality that helped build our country is based on the values that are found in the Bible.

And in my little small way, I want to encourage people to get back into those values.” PeopleWayWantLooksLittlesPersonsCountryHelpingProblemValuesFoundMoralityFellowsOur CountryGet AwayGet BackBenevolence Author:Tom Hayden
