Never underestimate people. They do desire the cut of truth.
When you are present, the world is truly alive.
Sometimes when you think you are done, it is just the edge of beginning. Probably that's why we decide we're done. It's getting too scary. We are touching down onto something real. It is beyond the point when you think you are done that often something strong comes out.
Anything you fully do is an alone journey.
Trust in what you love, continue to do it, and it will take you where you need to go.
It's the process of writing and life that matters... We are trying to become sane along with our poems and stories.
If you are not afraid of the voices inside you, you will not fear the critics outside you.
Talk when you talk, walk when you walk, and die when you die.
Stress is an ignorant state. It believes that everything is an emergency. Nothing is that important.
We have to look at our own inertia, insecurities, self-hate, fear that, in truth, we have nothing valuable to say. When your writing blooms out of the back of this garbage compost, it is very stable. You are not running from anything. You can have a sense of artistic security. If you are not afraid of the voices inside you, you will not fear the critics outside you.
