If you sit quietly long enough, you'll hear yourself telling you stories about who and what you are, and why you do the things you do. In fact, you'll never be able to stop telling yourself these stories. |

'Just Do It' is exactly what you need to hear when you're in a moment of doubt. When you're struggling, especially with sport... just do it. Stop talking about it, stop complaining about the cellulite, or that you're not able to run fast enough for the bus... just do it. |

Man, I'm 31 years old and a husband with four kids; I hope I'm no thug. I hear all those negative things and don't hear anything positive. I think that's all those people feel... that way that's all they hear about when you hear Allen Iverson did something negative or something. |

You hear about constitutional rights, free speech and the free press. Every time I hear these words I say to myself, 'That man is a Red, that man is a Communist!' You never hear a real American talk like that. |

It's the big question of every TV show, right, where you have these two people who it's clear the world wants to put them together and everyone wants to see them together, but also when you're telling these stories you can't throw these people together immediately. |

For me, writing a novel is more like digging a well than climbing a mountain - some heroic thing where I set out to conquer. I just sit quietly for a few years, and then it starts to become something. |
| Nathaniel Hawthorne |
Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. |

You hear these horrible stories about the FBI just doing all these nasty things to people. And you know what? In my case, I didn't experience any of that, probably because the way I treated them. I was like, 'Okay, what do you want to know?' So I kept going back to their offices on a regular basis. |
| Sylvia Earle |
The best scientists and explorers have the attributes of kids! They ask question and have a sense of wonder. They have curiosity. 'Who, what, where, why, when, and how!' They never stop asking questions, and I never stop asking questions, just like a five year old. |
| Bob Marley |
God sent me on earth. He send me to do something, and nobody can stop me. If God want to stop me, then I stop. Man never can. |
| Marian Wright Edelman |
Learn to be quiet enough to hear the genuine within yourself so that you can hear it in others. |

I can't stop telling stories to myself in my head. It's super distracting.

Trying to remember your dreams, in my experience, is doing these small things like telling yourself to write things down when you wake up or to think about what is possible/not possible while falling asleep. Or to say things out loud when you wake up. I don't remember to do these things until one day I say "if you do this thing it will help you remember." And then I find myself doing it. I think because you're not conscious the only way to influence these things is by priming your brain to do them. It just makes me think about how I could probably improve other areas of my life by just telling myself that if I do X, then Y will change or improve; by priming myself for better habits.

Don’t interrupt someone working intently on a puzzle. Chances are, you’ll hear some crosswords.

I had a dream that I lived in some community. It seemed rural and consisted of 3 or 4 huge buildings with lots of little rooms. In this world, it was common knowledge that there were these huge wolves that lived in the forest. People said they were about 7 feet tall and 15 feet long (maybe twice the size of extinct dire wolves). I was outside on the roof of one of the buildings. I don't know what I was doing. I think I was doing chores or something. This building was 4 or 5 stories but not in all areas, so parts of the roof dropped off to two or three stories below. There was probably no one else outside at the time when I noticed a wolf even bigger than people talked about. It had black fur and was maybe 12 feet tall and 20 feet long. I was freaked the fuck out. It saw me and started climbing the building and I jumped off the top part to a few stories down and fell through the roof into the building so I could hide from the wolf. Then I just remember trying to warn people and wonderi...

Could you be unintentionally giving access to private data via texting when you say "let [the govt] read my texts! I have nothing to hide!". Thats sort of like telling police they can come inside and take a look. Because even tho the text is 'private' and your not telling that to the govt, its technically in the hands of Verizon to do what they will with or whoever tf

"Yeah, well, now that I'm working here you'll get to know her!" Katherine gives Alexandria a smooch on the forehead and returns behind the counter.
"Ms. Helga, what's your favorite word?" Alexandria asks without looking away from her coloring.
"My favorite word? I'll have to think about that, what's your favorite word?"
"Oh, well if I'm telling you then it will be harder for you to think about it, but it's okay, I'll keep coloring until your ready."
Helga found this very amusing to hear coming from such a tiny person and marveled at her talent for being assertive yet polite and most of all consid...

I had a dream I was in some big mansion and there was a huge room in the middle and there was a family there that I didn't know. They had a dog that really wanted to eat me and it kept almost biting me and the owners were telling it to stop but it wasn't really listening.

I had a dream that I was in my grandmas house and my siblings kept coming and going and I was running around the house trying to gather things. I don't really know what I was doing. My dad was just sitting in the living room telling me that I needed to do things but I never really knew what he was talking about.

Stephen King’s 20 Rules for Writers
1. First write for yourself, and then worry about the audience. “When you write a story, you’re telling yourself the story. When you rewrite, your main job is taking out all the things that are not the story."
2. Don’t use passive voice. “Timid writers like passive verbs for the same reason that timid lovers like passive partners. The passive voice is safe.”
