So much of the trouble is because I am a woman. To me it seems a very terrible thing to be a woman. There is one crown which perhaps is worth it all--a great love, a quiet home, and children.

Yes. To write a novel is to risk my sanity. The deeper I get into the suffering and conflict of the characters, into the very situations and thoughts and feelings that make the novel worthwhile, the worse I feel, and the more likely I am to be severely depressed when the book is finished. There is no avoiding this: it is the result of attempting to tell all you know, to reach for the stars, to write what matters. — Anne Rice

The game is worthwhile insofar as we don’t know what will be the end. — Michel Foucault

The reason to deliberately do hard things is so that when non-self-elected challenges arrive and they will, you can tell yourself: I don’t know how this is all going to turn out, but I am certain I can do hard things. Don’t self injure. But doing hard things is always worthwhile. — Andrew Huberman
