William Faulkner

Be scared. You can't help that. But don't be afraid. Ain't nothing in the woods going to hurt you unless you corner it, or it smells that you are afraid. A bear or a deer, too, has got to be scared of a coward the same as a brave man has got to be.
William Faulkner

So this award is only mine in trust.
William Faulkner

Bad health is the primary reason for all life. Created by disease, within putrefaction, into decay
