Thomas Wolfe on Ambition, Gratitude, and the True Measure of Success, in Letters to His Mother - Deepstash
THOMAS WOLFE

I want to know life and understand it and interpret it without fear or favor. This, I feel is a man’s work and worthy of a man’s dignity. Life is not made up of dishonest optimism, God is not always in his Heaven, all is not always right with the world. It is not all bad, but it is not all good, it is not all ugly, but it is not all beautiful, it is life, life, life — the only thing that matters.
