245. Mario Vargas Llosa
“Like writing, reading is a protest against the insufficiencies of life.”
“You dream what you’re supposed to do.”
“Success is a function of persistence and doggedness and the willingness to work hard.”
“I grew up poor, but I didn’t have poor dreams.”
“I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.”
“Do not fear mistakes. There are none.”
“The pen is the tongue of the mind.”
“As you give out, so shall you receive.”
“Study the greats and become greater.”
“Within you right now is the power to do things you never dreamed possible.”
