“A writer writes not because he is educated but because he is driven by the need to communicate. Behind the need to communicate is the need to share. Behind the need to share is the need to be understood.”
Leo Rosten 1908-1997
"Some writers try to be clever and complicated. Often the simple things are the best."
Ann Kelley, Costa Childrens Fiction Prize Winner, 2007
“Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery that it is. In the boredom and pain of it no less than in the excitement and gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it because in the last analysis all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace.”
Frederick Buechner
(ref: Rebecca Ramsey)
“Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you help them to become what they are capable of being.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

This is a fun little blog.
I'll have to wander around it and your others when I have more time.
(Today I have to grade essays/ mark papers.)
