self is in prison, its vital force and "mangled mind"
leaking away in lonely, wasteful self-conflict.
?Elizabeth Drew
Laughter and tears are both responses to
frustration and exhaustion . . . .

People need trouble -- a little frustration to
sharpen the spirit on, toughen it. Artists do;
I don't mean you need to live in a rat hole or
gutter, but you have to learn fortitude,
endurance. Only vegetables are happy.
?William Faulkner
Fundamentally, all writing is about the same thing;
it's about dying, about the brief flicker of time
we have here, and the frustration that it creates.
?Mordecai Richler
It is the awareness of unfulfilled desires which gives
a nation the feeling that it has a mission and a destiny.
?Eric Hoffer
All that is necessary to break the spell of inertia and
frustration is to -- act as if it were impossible to fail.
?Dorothea Brande
