Quotations are word innovations.

Each voice on the Web, no matter how small, speaks of this era to the next generation and says, 'quorum párs magna fui' – 'in which I played a great part.'

No one says a novel has to be one thing. It can be anything it wants to be, a vaudeville show, the six o’clock news, the mumblings of wild men saddled by demons.

In order to write the book you want to write, in the end you have to become the person you need to become to write that book.

Anyone who says writing is easy isn't doing it right.

I hold that a writer who does not passionately believe in the perfectibility of man has no dedication nor any membership in literature.
