You can’t be afraid of what people will say, because you’re never going to make everyone happy.
A writer is a person for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.
There is nothing in the dark that isn't there when the lights are on.
The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.
" The imagination is a weapon."
" There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man."
" You can’t be afraid of what people will say. You have to be true to yourself."
" We are all our own devil, and we make this world our hell."
" The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision."
The imagination is a weapon.
