“If my energies are not respected how can I respect yours? If my life is worthless to you then how can yours be worthwhile to me?”

“Ah well, you will meet that condition in a family or a society that’s been ripped apart by one thing or the other. However, the freer the family and/or society the greater room there is to escape the ridiculous conflict and become what life demands one become.”

“A free person always carries along scar tissue.”

“No doubt. But the battle itself is left far behind in a burnt out wood.”

“Let it be, let it burn.”

“When the writer is whipped and passive it is not a good era. When the writer is bold and fearless then it is a good era. And any era will throw everything at the writer, including death, to stop him from his simple deeds.”

“A bad era will make a writer feel horrible for what he does. A good era will exalt a writer for what he does. In that case the writer has to find his own path to the humble state.
