“Always set goals, and work as hard as you can. You'll be amazed at what you can do.”
“The ultimate goal is victory. And if you refuse to work as hard as you possibly can toward that aim, or if you do anything that keeps you from achieving that goal, then you are just cheating yourself.”
“Never set as your goal something that a dead person can do better than you.”
“Becoming a star may not be your destiny, but being the best that you can be is a goal that you can set for yourselves.”
“When you're willing to do the work, it's amazing what can be saved.”
“There's a difference between writing for a living and writing forlife. If you write for a living, you make enormous compromises....If you write for life, you'll work hard; you'll do what's honest,not what pays”
