"If any ambitious man have a fancy to revolutionize, at one effort, the universal world of human thought, human opinion, and human sentiment, the opportunity is his own -- the road to immortal renown lies straight, open, and unencumbered before him. All that he has to do is to write and publish a very little book. Its title should be simple -- a few plain words -- My Heart Laid Bare. But -- this little book must be true to its title. "
-Edgar Allen Poe.
I believe this quote means that all humans need in life is right in front of them it is just their choice and their duty to find it and make the best out of it. And to always be true to yourself and what you are thinking and feeling. An example of this scenario in my life is that I am not the type of person to confront anyone. I try to stay out of any type of violence and confrontation. And therefore, usually keep my feelings and opinions to myself. I had to learn to assert myself without getting involved in violence and so far it has worked.
