"I'm free to leave... go wherever I please, do whatever I want; I believe everyone should live like t..." — Shel Silverstein

I can write a poem in 10 minutes. I like writing songs; I can write songs in 5 or 10 minutes. My concentration seems very short.

I couldn't play ball. I couldn't dance. Luckily, the girls didn't want me. Not much I could do about that. So I started to draw and to write. By the time I got to where I was attracting girls, I was already into work, and it was more important to me.

People are always giving you credit for really wanting to say more than you said.
