Every writer has quirks. We call it our muses. Mine is reading biographies of writers like Stephen King, Shakespeare, Penny Jordon, Hemmingway, Twain etc...
Some of their quotes have always touched my heart....
1. SHAKESPEARE

And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages.
2. And as imagination bodies forth
Most writers regard the truth as their most valuable possession, and therefore are most economical in its use.
1. “The best way to treat obstacles is to use them as stepping-stones. Laugh at them, tread on them, and let them lead you to something better.”
― Enid Blyton, Mr Galliano's Circus
2. “If you can't look after something in your care, you have no right to keep it.”
― Enid Blyton
“Only the weak blame their past for the faults they find in their present; the strong acknowledge the effects of their past and then move on from it. We are all free to choose whether we will be weak or strong.”
― Penny Jordan, The Italian Duke's Virgin Mistress
1. As long as the plots keep arriving from outer space, I'll go on with my virgins.
2. I have always found women difficult. I don't really understand them. To begin with, few women tell the truth.

The forms of things unknown, the poet’s pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.
