Secrecy

I have grown to love secrecy.  It seems to be the one thing that can make modern life mysterious or marvelous to us.  The commonest thing is delightful if one only hides it.  When I leave town now I never tell my people where I am going.  If I did, I would lose all my pleasure.  It is a silly habit, I dare say, but somehow it seems to bring a great deal of romance into one's life.

The Winner Stands Alone

I'm currently reading "The Winner Stands Alone" by Paulo Coelho.  This book has changed my whole view of the those that have money.  Paulo Coelho is an artist with words.

"Fashion" is merely a way of saying: "I belong to your world.  I'm wearing the same uniform as your army, so don't shoot."

Inner Monologue

"As I'm sure you guys know by now, it is extremely difficult to stay alert and attentive instead of getting hypnotized by the constant monologue inside your head."
by David Foster Wallace
