Paint by Numbers for Kat
I'm terribly sorry it took me so long.
And I hope you like them.
1. Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia. - E.L. Doctorow
(Screw the rules. I never did like following them anyway)
2. I try to leave out the parts that people skip. - Elmore Leonard
(I’m an optimist, because being a pessimist doesn’t help either)
3. If there's a book you really want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it. - Toni Morrison
(Keep dreaming your dreams)
4. The act of putting pen to paper encourages pause for thought, this in turn makes us think more deeply about life, which helps us regain our equilibrium. - Norbet Platt
(We are all meant to shine, like children do)
5. It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. - Vita Sackville-West
(Si tu veux être heureux, oublie la logique! – If you want to be happy, forget the logic!)
6. I'm not a very good writer, but I'm an excellent rewriter. - James Michener
(Some voices stay with you forever)
7. The wastebasket is a writer's best friend. - Isaac Bashevis Singer
(Never trust a man to do a woman's job...)
8. Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart. - William Wordsworth
(I found your letter tonight. I found the flower you left on the table tonight. I found the memory of your soft voice tonight. But not you, not you, not tonight. Maybe tomorrow night, I’ll find you by my side…)
9. The pages are still blank, but there is a miraculous feeling of the words being there... clamoring to become visible. - Vladimir Nabakov
(There is no right or wrong, only the consequences of your actions)
10. Ink and paper are sometimes passionate lovers, oftentimes brother and sister, and occasionally mortal enemies. - Terri Guillemets
(They say eyes are the windows of the soul. Some windows should never be opened)
11. I love the swirl and swing of words as they tangle with human emotions. - James Michener
(You once told me white is the full moon. You once told me blood is red. You told me blue is the endless sea. You also told me you loved me. And to accept these simple truths, just to accept them, my soul wishes, my soul longs, that my heart could)
12. Writing is my time machine, takes me to the precise time and place I belong. - Jeb Dickerson
(Lost & Found)
13. Words - so innocent and powerless as they are... how potent for good and evil they become. - Nathaniel Hawthorne
(If knowledge is power, power corrupts, corruption is a crime, and crime never pays… Does knowledge, in the end, leave you broken?)
14. All my best thoughts were stolen by the ancients. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
(Running late)
15. There's many a bestseller that could have been prevented by a good teacher. - Flannery O'Connor
(I will not accept failure because I do not want everyone else to be right about me.)
16. God composes, why shouldn't we? - Terri Guillemets
(Some rules just can’t be broken)
17. A synonym is a word you use when you can't spell the other one. - Baltasar Gracián
(But he held on to my hand, even if it was easier to let go)
18. Writing comes more easily if you have something to say. - Sholem Asch
(Memories are always beautiful, but with only that you cannot live)
19. If I don't write to empty my mind, I go mad. - Lord Byron
(The night before)
20. Writing is a struggle against silence. - Carlos Fuentes
(Le ciel n’a pas de limites. J’aime cette sensation. C’est rassurant. – The sky has no limits. I like that feeling. It’s reassuring.)
And I hope you like them.
