William S. Burroughs Quotes
Build a good name. Keep your name clean. Don't make compromises. Don't worry about making a bunch of money or being successful. Be concerned with doing good work and make the right choices and protect your work. And if you can build a good name, eventually, that name will be its own currency.

I wouldn't say that I have overcome opposition so much as I have tried to understand it.
