Quotes

  • Дмитрий Карпенкоhas quoted3 years ago
    Write or nothing. It’s the same principle as keeping order in a school. If you make the pupils behave, they will learn something just to keep from being bored. I find it works. Two very simple rules, a. you don’t have to write. b. you can’t do anything else. The rest comes of itself.”

    The Nothing Alternative (and Other Tricks of Offense)
  • Дмитрий Карпенкоhas quoted3 years ago
    The secret of my incredible energy and efficiency in getting work done is a simple one,” Benchley wrote. “The psychological principle is this: anyone can do any amount of work, provided it isn’t the work he is supposed to be doing at that moment.”
