Sometimes fear is a warning. It's like someone putting a hand on your shoulder and saying Go No Farther.

The supernatural world has always been more real to me than the real world.

I wasn't sent here to find angels! I wasn't sent here to dream of them. I wasn't sent here to hear them sing! I was sent here to be alive. To breathe and sweat and thirst and sometimes cry.

Oh to have you with me, to have you here, not to be alone, but to be with you, my beauty, you of all souls! You.

Writers, as they gain success, feel like outsiders because writers don't come together in real groups.

I'm definitely more influenced by European writers than I am by American writers, there's no doubt about that.

I loved words. I love to sing them and speak them and even now, I must admit, I have fallen into the joy of writing them.
