I never think of an entire book at once. i always just start with a very small idea. in 'holes,' i just began with the setting; a juvenile correctional facility located in the texas desert. then i slowly make up the story, and rewrite it several times, and each time i rewrite it, i get new ideas, and change the old ideas around.

Nine requisites for contented living: health enough to make work a pleasure. wealth enough to support your needs. strength to battle with difficulties and overcome them. grace enough to confess your sins and forsake them. patience enough to toil until some good is accomplished. charity enough to see some good in your neighbor. love enough to move you to be useful and helpful to others. faith enough to make real the things of god. hope enough to remove all anxious fears concerning the future.

Nice Writing Feelings
If i marry: he must be so tall that when he is on his knees, as one has said he reaches all the way to heaven. his shoulders must be broad enough to bear the burden of a family. his lips must be strong enough to smile, firm enough to say no, and tender enough to kiss. love must be so deep that it takes its stand in christ and so wide that it takes the whole lost world in. he must be active enough to save souls. he must be big enough to be gentle and great enough to be thoughtful. his arms must be strong enough to carry a little child.

In my estimation, there should always be a mixture of economic liberalism - which means small government, a great emphasis on markets - but also a certain degree of social conservatism, not to favor change unless that change is beneficial. so i describe myself as an economic liberal and a social conservative.
Mean Government Mixtures
Were i disposed to consider the comparative merit of each of them [facts or theories in medical practice], i should derive most of the evils of medicine from supposed facts, and ascribe all the remedies which have been uniformly and extensively useful, to such theories as are true. facts are combined and rendered useful only by means of theories, and the more disposed men are to reason, the more minute and extensive they become in their observations

This is at a time when you know most of us drank tap water, so i used to go to this store and examine all the varieties and we used to marvel at all the choices out there, but i found that i rarely bought anything and i kind of thought that was kind of curious. i mean, they had things that the other grocery stores didn't have and yet i never bought anything.
