Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Because writing gave meaning to my life. In case you haven’t noticed, life generally doesn’t have any meaning—unless you strive, every God-given day, to provide it with some.

“Learn to love your failures, Marcus, because it is your failures that will make you who you are. It is your failures that will give meaning to your victories.”
“Cherish love, Marcus. Make it your greatest conquest, your sole ambition. After men, there will be other men. After books, there will be other books. After glory, there will be other glories. After money, there will be yet more money. But after love, Marcus, after love, there is nothing but the salt from tears.”
