John Steinbeck
“I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist.”
“It is the nature of man to rise to greatness if greatness is expected of him.”
“People don’t take trips—trips take people.”
“A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.”
“Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen.”
“A sad soul can kill you quicker than a germ.”
“I wonder how many people I’ve looked at all my life and never seen.”
“And now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good.”
