Why do writers write? Because it isn't there.
Things won are done; joy's soul lies in the doing.

To believe in God or in a guiding force because someone tells you to is the height of stupidity. We are given senses to receive our information within. With our own eyes we see, and with our own skin we feel. With our intelligence, it is intended that we understand. But each person must puzzle it out for himself or herself.
Always be nice to those younger than you, because they are the ones who will be writing about you.
