smart hunting way
American hunting is quite different from English hunting because we don't hunt to kill. Even if I wanted to kill a fox, I couldn't. They're too smart and they have too many ways to escape me, whereas they don't in England.

Never let anyone or any social attitude stand in the way of your productivity.

Put your money in your head, that way no one can take it from you.

piety is like garlic: a little goes a long way.

Golf is an expensive way to make yourself miserable.

I have no idea what will come next in my writing life or life in general. I like not knowing, but I know what I want. That doesn't mean it will happen, but I'll give it my best try.

Good judgment comes from experience, and often experience comes from bad judgment.
love life being-yourself
About all you can do in life is be who you are. Some people will love you for you. Most will love you for what you can do for them, and some won't like you at all.
