"Boredom " the psychological state that we experience whenever we are uninterested in what we are currently doing " is one of the defining traits of humanity. Time is the psychological nemesis of humankind. Tedium, a fundamental angst of humankind, arises from human beings' ability to perceive time and our attempts to derive meaning from our personal existence."

"Our only competition in the theater is boredom, because if I'm bored with a play, if I'm revolted by a play on stage, with the Broadway prices, especially today, I'm going to walk out and not come back and pay that price again."

"One would like to be grand and heroic, if one could; but if not, why try at all? One wants to be very something, very great, very heroic; or if not that, then at least very stylish and very fashionable. It is this everlasting mediocrity that bores me."

"Literature is map of humanity, the documenter of civilization. Books introduce us to the landscape of the greatest minds of every century."
Literature
"Storytelling entails weaving a narrative out of the disturbing, strange, inspirational, and unremarkable detritus of life. By picking among the litter of our personal experiences to select evocative anecdotes to weave into a narrative format, we reveal which of life's legendary offerings prove the most sublime to us. Acts of omission are momentous. Our narration of personal sketches divulge what factoids inspire us or do not stir us into action, or contain obdurate truths that prove virtually impossible to crack."
Storytelling
"Writing fiction or nonfiction is a lonely battle wrestling with sentences in an effort to put together an intelligible thought that speaks for the author."
Creativity
"A poet warrior realizes both the brutality and the beauty in life, and apprehends that the suffering we tragically endure is partly what makes us human. What also makes us human is the ability to love, the ability to stand in nature's presence, and to nurture this earthly paradise to tend to our family's needs."
Humanity
"Every human being carries with them the stories of their ancestors, the story of their generation, and the rudiments of pliable clay to build future storylines that will shape their community of kindred souls. Storytelling unites us as a species and supplies texture to our lives. By listening to other people's stories and by sharing our personal story, we deftly weave the threads that compose the sacred hoop of the tribe."
Storytelling
"Life's most precious moments are not all loud or uproarious. Silence and stillness has its own virtues."
Silence
"Some people never stop working, especially the demanding type of person whom the world never seems to touch, the indomitable person whom is determined to make the world their own place."
Work
"A willingness to let go of an old self and allow creative thoughts to remake a person into a better version of oneself requires an act of courage."
Life
"A person lives a false life whenever they are afraid to make contact with his or her authentic self. A sensitive ego " one that protects a person from pain " can also prevent a person from maturing mentally and emotionally by causing a person to distort truths and refuse to admit unpleasant facts."
Authenticity
"Without opposition, there could be no creation. All life would cease without resistance. Emotions also have their polar opposites: attraction " repulsion, love " hate, aggression " meekness, and mercy " callousness."
