"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."
-Flannery O'Connor
"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."
-Elisabeth Elliot, Preface, "A Chance to Die: The Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael"

I tend to add snarky replies to existing sayings, such as "You can attract more flies with honey than vinegar, but why would you want to attract flies?"
"The early bird gets the worm, and he can keep it too."
"The early bird gets the worm, and he can keep it too."
Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?
