  15. “Fear," the doctor said, "is the relinquishment of logic, the willing relinquishing of reasonable patterns. We yield to it or we fight it, but we cannot meet it halfway.”

  28. "No writer can get entirely outside of his work. After a point, well defined for every individual, though varying according to the disposition of each, a dread like an iron clutch withholds a writer from tampering further with what has been produced under the spur of an enthusiasm or inspiration removed by the cool hand of time."

    Cardwill, M. E. (1896). Editing One's Own Manuscript. The Writer, 9, 158.

  32. "We fabricate your truth and tell your lies
    that a reader may hold you friend or foe
    and that your story brackets them with sighs
    we do this to share something beautiful
    it's not for wealth or fame we give our time
    but the burning to pen the words won't slow
    yet how cruel to never earn a dime"--Steaphan Kay

  37. 'As for ‘Write what you know,' I was regularly told this as a beginner. I think it's a very good rule and have always obeyed it. I write about imaginary countries, alien societies on other planets, dragons, wizards, the Napa Valley in 22002. I know these things. I know them better than anybody else possibly could, so it's my duty to testify about them.' – Ursula K. Le Guin
