Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.

Oscar Wilde once said that to live is the rarest thing in the world, because most people just exist, and that’s all. I don’t know if he’s right, but I do know that I spent a long time existing, and now, I intend to live.

Words! Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, vivd and cruel! One could not escape
from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them! They seemed to be able to give a
plastic form to formless things, and to have a music of their own as sweet as that of a viol or of a
lute. Mere words! Was there anything so real as words?

Education is an admirable thing,
BUT IT IS WELL TO REMEMBER FROM TIME TO TIME THAT
nothing that is worth knowing
CAN BE TAUGHT
Please don't remove this!
