“If you're an actor, always be true to your character. If you are not an actor, have character and always be true to yourself.”
Robert De Niro

George Eliot
“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”
George Eliot

William Faulkner
“Read,read,read. Read everything - trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out the window.”
William Faulkner

William Carlos Williams
“I prefer not to starve, to live by the practice of medicine, which combines the best features of both science and philosophy with that imponderable and enlightening element, disease, unknown in its normality to either. But, like Pasteur, when he was young, or anyone else who has something to do, I wish I had more money for my literary experiments.”

William Carlos Williams, c. 1931”
William Carlos Williams

James A. Michener
“Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries.”
