Life of Pablo

He is whipped oftenest, who is whipped easiest.

"As you look back on what we have been through, try to stand strong. This is where you belong. While sometimes the ocean is rough, and we feel like nothing gets done, we still sign shine like the sand when it's hit by the sun."

“It must be considered that there is nothing more difficult to carry out nor more doubtful of success nor more dangerous to handle than to initiate a new order of things; for the reformer has enemies in all those who profit by the old order, and only lukewarm defenders in all those who would profit by the new order; this lukewarmness arising partly from the incredulity of mankind who does not truly believe in anything new until they actually have experience of it.”

"A good sentence imposes a logic on the world’s weirdness. It gets its power from the tension between the ease of its phrasing and the shock of its thought slid cleanly into the mind. A sentence, as it proceeds, is a paring away of options. Each added word, because of the English language’s dependence on word order, reduces the writer’s alternatives and narrows the reader’s expectations. But even up to the last word the writer has choices and can throw in a curveball. A sentence can begin in one place and end in another galaxy, without breaking a single syntactic rule."

“Keep the language crisp and pungent; prefer the forthright … omit the extraneous … Favor the active voice and shun streams of polysyllables and prepositional phrases. Keep sentences and paragraphs short, and vary the structure of both.Be frugal in the use of adjectives and adverbs; let nouns and verbs show their own power.”
