Do not raise your children the way your parents raised you; they were born for a different time.

meaningful stars growing-up
I'm a novelist who read a lot as a kid. When you grow up on books and then grow up to write books, famous authors are a lot more meaningful to you than TV and movie stars.

If there is anything the nonconformist hates worse than a conformist, it's another nonconformist who doesn't conform to the prevailing standard of nonconformity.

A citizen of America will cross the ocean to fight for democracy, but won't cross the street to vote in a national election.
