“For all of us it’s the things that won’t work that keep our interest.”

“Sometimes … I think parents work so hard to keep us from making their mistakes, they won’t allow us to make our own.”

“I like instant gratification. It’s like instant coffee, only it won’t keep you up all night.”

“It is funny how mortals always picture us as putting things into their minds: in reality our best work is done by keeping things out.”

“We all lose people. We all have to live in the aftermath. It’s how we move forward that counts, but sometimes we are tethered to something in our past that won’t let us move forward.”

“Sometimes it’s great, and sometimes it’s shit.These are the things all the great philosophersjust won’t tell you flat out about life. You keep moving, keep living, keep breathingAnd you keep writing-creating because that’s what you doAnd that’s who you are. There are no magical voices to guideYou except your own. Make it count.~ R.M. ENGELHARDT”
