What did he fear? It was not a fear or dread. It was a nothing that he knew too well. It was all a nothing and a man was a nothing too. It was only that and light was all it needed and a certain cleanness and order. Some lived in it and never felt it but he knew it all was nada y pues nada y nada y pues nada. Our nada who art in nada, nada be thy name thy kingdom nada thy will be nada in nada as it is in nada. Give us this nada our daily nada and nada us our nada as we nada our nadas and nada us not into nada but deliver us from nada; pues nada. Hail nothing full of nothing, nothing is with thee.
A Clean, Well-Lighted Place by Ernest Hemingway

This is the same person who said "literature is a luxury; fiction is a necessity." Another good one!

Life is living, not existing. Seize life, and enjoy every minute.
We awaken the muse with the spirit of creativity. We entomb it with the ghoul of self-doubt.
That's right, I have a muse. It is spelled MusE. My writing is influenced by the interactions of people I meet - us and ME.
