“Everything you do, is useful, even if it is not apparent at the time.”

“There is an advantage to be found in most everything that happens to you, even if it is not immediately apparent.”

“Do everything by hand, even when using the computer.”

“You do like me, don’t you? Even though I’m apparently communicatively handicapped and socially retarded?”

“word is like a sword; you should be wise when to use it or it'll kill and ruin everything you did in your past, you're doing at this time, and you're gonna do in the future”

“Do not depend on the hope of results. You may have to face the fact that your work will be apparently worthless and even achieve no result at all, if not perhaps results opposite to what you expect. As you get used to this idea, you start more and more to concentrate not on the results, but on the value, the rightness, the truth of the work itself. You gradually struggle less and less for an idea and more and more for specific people. In the end, it is the reality of personal relationship that saves everything.”
