I would like to know, if you are a naturally friendly person who always have a kind and soft heart since small but throughout your life you continue to experience betrayal, abuse, discrimination, cheated, distrusted, etc by 9 out of 10 people you met, what stance you'll take to continue to survive?

I am a religious and spiritual person, but I will take the dark side for self-defence. I have learnt to be ruthless, selfish and distrust others in order to survive. What about you?

I'm 34 and have found that as Ive got older, Ive become more aware of what I want from life and my attitude towards life has become more relaxed and in some respects it has led to my life unfolding the way I want it to. Not in all areas, but certainly in some and I think accepting myself and generally mellowing a bit as Ive got older has helped me in a lot of ways, certainly in the way I see life and myself. Thoughts please? Had similar experience?

Why waste your time with proofs, factual information and statistics when EVERYTHING can be argued intelligently anyways?? Even the most absurd things can be justified if a person is willing to put in that much effort.

Why can't we just argue opinions? Isn't that what most people do anyways?

Christians, please do not see this as a forum for the usual cutting and pasting of scriptural drivel. It is a philosophical question aimed at stirring lively, intelligent debate.

It is called The Stages of Friendship. I think there were 5 or 6 listed. It is by a famous poet, who's first initial is J.(last name escapes me). He has several published books. I have done several searches but can't find this particular poem. Now I can't remember his last name! (I have CRS disease) He writes about how in the first stages of friendship you are polite with each other, then in the next stages you progress to familiarity, etc. until you each laugh at each other's jokes before the words can be spoken.

Ok so this is for a a university paper (childrens lit), a point in the right direction in finding scholary sources would be outstanding.
And not just harry potter, whatever book you think deserves to be given status alongside the alice of wonderlands and huckleberry finns of the childrens literary world.

I am a first-time novelist and an associate of mine has a manuscript, as well. I was wondering if anyone could advise me on the average/base price manuscripts sell for these days. My associate's book is a fantasy; mine is around the drama/suspense genre. My book is about 535-550 book-formatted pages and surpasses 160,000 words. I plan to study the market more at a later time but for now, what is (or is there) a general base average for manuscripts these days? Any links or misc. info would be appreciated greatly.
