Be soft

Posted on Updated on

“Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.”
~ Kurt Vonnegut

    Though we may not always agree with everyone no one is of less worth than anyone else. “I may not agree with your words, but I will defend with my last breath your right to speak them.” – Voltaire

      – not sure if Voltaire actually said this himself though (?) but I love that quote.

        Meh, it was in an article I read in a professional journal. Although the source wasn’t cited. I figure it was either Voltaire or Martty Feldman.

          That’s a great way of looking at it! Taking time off is sometimes necessary and your writing is still awesome :)
