"The thing about a story is that you dream it as you tell it, hoping that others might then dream along with you, and in this way memory and imagination and language combine to make spirits in the head. There is the illusion of aliveness."
-Tim O'Brien, The Things They Carried

"There's what you're good at, then there's what you enjoy, and then there's what you can do. They're not necessarily the same things, but you should consider these to figure out what you want to do."
