Terence Blacker quotes
-
“Suddenly I find myself feeling sorry for those greedy, needy people whose huge salaries are never quite enough, whose sense of worth is defined by their own personal wad. What a diminished, impoverished world they must inhabit ... We should feel sorry for them and their sadly limited lives. Then we should remember never to trust the judgement of those whose priorities are so idiotically skewed.”
-- Terence Blacker -
“It may sound like a mess, but sometimes mess can be okay, mess can be fine. Sometimes mess is just another word for living your life as real you, not someone else's version of what they think you should be.”
-- Terence Blacker -
“For those who can do it and who keep their nerve, writing for a living still beats most real, grown-up jobs hands down.”
-- Terence Blacker
