“Life is messy,” Dr. Lau was fond of saying. “Deal with it. If you’re judging it, you’re not really seeing it.”
“Honestly,” he says, “I judge writers on how they write queries. If you’re a good writer, you’re a good writer.” And if not, then not.”
“❝ THE THING WAS, YOU EXPERIENCE LIFE AND YOU’RE FORCED TO DEAL WITH IT. LIKE IT OR NOT, IT HAPPENED AND YOU DEAL WITH IT. THAT’S THE DEAL. ❞”
“Judge not before you judge yourself. Judge not if you’re not ready for judgment.”
“Judging from the fact that you’re out here by yourself, I’d say that you were probably embarrassed,”
“How do you judge the brightness of a light when you’re the source? A spotlight can never see the shadows it casts.”
