"I can't write without a reader. It's precisely like a kiss—you can't do it alone."
"This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force." "I hate writing, I love having written." "If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at the people he gave it to." "Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses." "I don't care what is written about me as long as it isn't true." "You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think." "The first thing I do in the morning is brush my teeth and sharpen my tongue." "The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity." "Brevity is the soul of lingerie." |
