Yes, I get dry spells. Sometimes I can't turn out a thing for three months. When one of those spells comes on I quit trying to work and go out and see something of life. You can't write a story that's got any life in it by sitting at a writing table and thinking. You've got to get out into the streets, into the crowds, talk with people, and feel the rush and throb of real life-that's the stimulant for a story writer.

O. Henry

It ain't the roads we take; it's what's inside of us that makes us turn out the way we do.

O. Henry

Turn up the lights — I don't want to go home in the dark.
