Words Worth

• Well, I didn't say them first, I just repeat them to myself over and over again. My theory of writing comes from poet Robert Lowell, "Yet, why not say what happened?" And when I get to taking it all for granted, I remember Betsy in Thornton Wilder's "Our Town": "Do any human beings realize life while they live it, every, every minute?"
• I like to quote John Wayne when he said, "It's the truth, it don't have to mean anything." I think what he meant is what Oregon Country Beef has at their web site: "Truth is the Best Marketing". When I'm feeling harried, I rely on Innkeeper Butterbur in "Lord of the Rings": "I only know my own name because people shout it at me all day long!"
