A man of good will with a little effort and belief in his own powers can enjoy a deep, tranquil, rich life — provided he go his own way. He need not and should not think of making a good living, but rather of creating a good life for himself. To live ones own life is still the best way of life, always was, and always will be. — Henry Miller
