    “A tremendous number of people in America work very hard at something that bores them. Even a rich man thinks he has to go down to the office every day. Not because he likes it but because he can’t think of anything else to do.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    “The tragedy of bold, forthright, industrious people is that they act so continuously without much thinking, that it becomes dry and empty.”
    —Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    “This comes of James teaching me to think for myself, and never to hold back out of fear of what other people may think of me. It works beautifully as long as I think the same things as he does.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
