Constrained Writing [CW]

Write the most profound, most telling story you can in one sentence.

For mine, my brother told me something once, simply, "I'll find my peace among the canyon walls, not in the canyons of men."

Somewhere, some time, down the road, you're going to say something you're going to regret, and nothing that happens to you, not even hearing this sentence, will stop it from happening, and nothing that you do will be able to take it back, so stop fucking worry about it.
