She gave me hugs that were like oxygen to a dying man and uplifted my soul!

I am privileged to have your illuminating presence in my life that adds etherealness to my existence!

Women are like beautiful flowers. Only when you love them and take good care of them will they fully bloom into the beautiful flowers that they are.

We had the longest kisses under the Acacia tree.

I know not what it is about you that makes me go crazy but I do know that the radiance in your eyes is more dazzling than that in all the diamonds of this world!And that the inimitable fragrance of your skin is more sublime than that of all the perfumes of this world!

Days may pass into months, months may pass into years, and years may pass into decades, but I will always keep waiting for you.

Great growth comes from loneliness. You have time to develop, dwell in your own mind and go a bit mad. All great people are a bit mad. That__ good to remember. Don__ escape it._Great growth comes from time spent in foreign lands, watching foreign people with foreign cultures. It makes you forget about your own land and race and town for a while. Great growth also comes from rooting yourself into one place from time to time. Unpack your bags, get a nice bed, a book shelf, some friends. Learn to show up, keep in touch, stick around._Growth comes in all sort of forms and shapes, everywhere at all times, and it__ yours to take and consume. Do what ought to be done. Here and now, to get you somewhere _ anywhere.

There are some writers who sweep us along so strongly in their current of energy--Normal mailer, Tom Wolfe, Toni Morrison, William F. Buckley, Jr., Hunter Thompson, David Foster Wallace, Dave Eggers--that we assume that when they go to work the words just flow. Nobody thinks of the effort they made every morning to turn on the switch. You also have to turn on the switch. Nobody is going to do it for you.

Write for a cause,NOT APPLAUSEWrite to express,NOT TO IMPRESS.Writing isn__ just about being noticed_IT'S BEING REMEMBERED.

My fingers burn behind the keys of my typewriter, the lettering fading with every thoughtful strike. The many words I write I dare not stall; my mind perpetually alert for my magnum opus call.

...writers are a savage breed, Mr. Strike. If you want life-long friendship and selfless camaraderie, join the army and learn to kill. If you want a lifetime of temporary alliances with peers who will glory in your every failure, write novels.

I write because there is a madness within me to express my thoughts in words. I write because I feel passionately about certain feelings and there is this yearning within me to express these feelings in words. I am not comfortable meeting a lot of people. I like solitude. I like thinking and I dont like talking much.

You call me at 12am or 3am I will pick up your call. Once I make a commitment, I don't go back!

If you surrender to your imagination, the story will write itself.

I prefer to be on the side of losers, the misunderstood or lonely people rather than writing about the strong and powerful.

The greatest occupation is the act of writing.

You ought to stop everything and write the sacred-words as its flashes in your mind.

A stream of thoughts flows through one__ mind at a sacred-time.
