Archive material is vital to the writer of historical fiction.

Some people appear to be happy, but they simply don't give the matter much thought. Others make plans: I'm going to have a husband, a home, two children, a house in the country. As long as they're busy doing that, they're like bulls looking for the bullfighter: they react instinctively, they blunder on, with no idea where the target is. They get their car, sometimes they even get a Ferrari, and they think that's the meaning of life, and they never question it. Yet their eyes betray the sadness that even they don't know they carry in their soul. Are you happy?

Unfortunately, we do not often see the advantages in the power of values and virtues. We are easily taken away by physical wealth, material possessions and the power of money.

Life and history have repeatedly taught us that values and virtues are far much stronger than the physical wealth we often see. For material wealth emanates from values and virtues.

Like-dislike, good-bad, profit-loss; who gave rise to all these dualities? The society did. As far as God is concerned, there is no duality. If there are grains of food on one side and excrement on the other, in God's eyes, they are both —material (matter)—. What does God say about this? —All are materials!

Time is the material from which life is made

A child learns to be guilty when he is punished and scolded for damaging material objects

Time is the raw material from which money is made.

Time is the raw material from which products are made, when products are sold, money is made.

Money is a by-product of time. Money is the time that is well converted. Therefore, time is the raw material from which money is made.

Funny how money speaks even more loudly than morals in this beautiful, superficial material world.
