    You can write anything you want to,—a six-act blank verse, symbolic tragedy or a vulgar short, short story. Just so that you write it with honesty and gusto, and do not try to make somebody believe that you are smarter than you are. What’s the use? You can never be smarter than you are.
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    But stories that live longest
    Are sung above the glass,
    And Parnell loved his country
    And Parnell loved his lass.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
