P. Lovecraft

I know quite well that most people would agree with you, Torvald, and that you have warrant for it in books; but I can't be satisfied any longer with what most people say, and with what's in books. I must think things out for myself and try to understand them. ~Henrik Ibsen

I was never one to go up to someone as a five- or six-year-old and say, "Hello, my name's Paul, will you be my friend?"
