Love is the only energy I’ve ever used as a writer. I’ve never written out of anger, although anger has informed love.

~ Athol Fugard

Anybody who thinks there's nothing wrong with this world needs to have his head examined. Just when things are going all right, without fail someone or something will come along and spoil everything. Somebody should write that down as a fundamental law of the Universe. The principle of perpetual disappointment. If there is a God who created this world, he should scrap it and try again.

~ Athol Fugard

Be careful, Hally.Of what? The truth? I seem to be the only one around here who is prepared to face it.

Those are big collisions, Hally. They make for a lot of bruises. People get hurt in all that bumping, and we're sick and tired of it now. It's been going on for too long. Are we never going to get it right?...Learn to dance life like champions instead of always being just a bunch of beginners at it?
