an exerpt from "The Mindscape of Alan Moore"

"Quitting my day job and starting my life as a writer certainly was a tremendous risk.
It was a fool's leap, a shot in the dark.
But anything of value in our lives- whether it be a career, a work of art, a relationship- will always start with such a leap. And in order to be able to make it, you have to put aside the fear of failing and the desire of succeeding. You have to do these things completely purely without fear, without desire.
Because things that we do without lust or result, are the purest actions that we shall ever undertake."

not for the faint of heart

I just came across this incredible prank phone call made by a comedian in Montreal to Gov. Sarah Palin. Posing as French President, Nicolas Sarkozy, he manages to speak with her for almost six minutes before he tells her she has been pranked. It is priceless AND painful to listen to.
