Work inspires inspiration. Keep working. If you succeed, keep working. If you fail, keep working. If you’re interested, keep working. If you’re bored, keep working.

“Hatred is not the norm. Prejudice is not the norm. Suspicion, dislike, jealousy, scapegoating ~ none of those are the transcendent facets of the human personality. They’re diseases. They are the cancers of the soul.”
