I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living.
Everything you can imagine is real.
Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.
If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.
If there’s a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.
Creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.
The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.
A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.
Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.
Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.
Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.
We all die. The goal isn’t to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.
And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.
