Here is short list words of wisdom (most of them are writen/said by famous writers) that helped me, insiper my creativity etc.

I: Hope clouds observation

II: I must not fear.
Fear is the mind – killer.
Fear is the little – death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.


III: What senses do we lack that we cannot see and cannot hear another world all around us?

IV: If wishes were fishes, we'd all cast nets.

V: There is no escape — we pay for the violence of our ancestors.

VI: A stone is heavy and the sand is weighty; but a fools wrath is heavier than them both.

VII: To save one from a mistake is a gift of paradise.

VIII: It's easier to be terrified by an enemy you admire.

IX: Do not be trapped by the need to achieve anything. This way, you achieve everything.

X: If you need something to worship, then worship life — all life, every last crawling bit of it! We're all in this beauty together!

XI: The sword of destiny has two edges. You are one of them.

XII: If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?

XIII: It could be worse," he said by way of farewell. "It could be me.

XIV: The only reason for walking into the jaws of Death is so's you can steal his gold teeth.

XV: I've seen excitement, and I've seen boredom. And boredom was best.

XVI: The pen is mightier than the sword ... if the sword is very short, and the pen is very sharp.

XVII: Between the black of yesterday and the white of tomorrow is the great gray of today, filled with nostalgia and fear of the future.

XVIII: Wars are not favourable to delicate pleasures.

XIX: Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

XX: Short cuts make delays, but inns make longer ones.

XXI: Occasionally words must serve to veil the facts.

XXII: Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

XXIII: From this arises the question whether it is better to be loved rather than feared, or feared rather than loved. It might perhaps be answered that we should wish to be both: but since love and fear can hardly exist together, if we must choose between them, it is far safer to be feared than loved

XXIV: Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

XXV: Only in death duty ends!

XXVI: Even if dead I will still serve!

XXVII: Knowlege is the power, guard it well!

XXVIII: One who knows nothing can understand nothing.

XXIX: Most books on witchcraft will tell you that witches work naked. This is because most books on witchcraft are written by men.

XXX: A goal without a plan is just a wish.

Life is a tale.
Told by an idiot,
full of sound and fury,
signifing nothing..
