“They danced down the streets like dingledodies, and I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me…”

 “I want to fish as deep down as possible into my own subconscious in the belief that once that far down, everyone will understand because they are the same that far down.”

Be honest but don't be quiet
Be silent but don't talk
Don't open your mouth where there is no value
Stand up for yourself where it is needed
Don't wait for someone to come and do something for you.
