A name can't begin to encompass the sum of all her parts. But that's the magic of names, isn't it? That the complex, contradictory individuals we are can be called up complete and whole in another min...
Everybody's got the potential for great good and great wrong in them, but it's thechoices we make that define who we really are.
I'm a writer and this is what I do no matter what name we put to it. Year by year, the world is turning into a darker and stranger place than any of us could want. This is the only thing I do that has...
I don't want to live in the kind of world where we don't look out for each other. Not just the people that are close to us, but anybody who needs a helping hand. I cant change the way anybody else thi...
Everybody's got a true home—maybe not where they're living, butwhere their heart lives.
One expected growth, change without it, the world was less, the well of inspiration dried up, the muses fled.
There was too much going on here -- too much that strayed from odd all the way over into seriously weird.
