"I
learned never to empty the well of my writing, but always to stop when
there was still something there in the deep part of the well, and let it
refill at night from the springs that fed it."
~Ernest Hemingway
It matters not how strait
the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
~William Ernest Henley, "Invictus"
