I'm going to die with my mind intact. And to me that is the most exciting way you could possibly die.

Love is energy: it can neither be created nor destroyed. It just is and always will be, giving meaning to life and direction to goodness... Love will never die.

My job is essentially that of an entertainer, no different to that of a musician, no different to that of an actor. I just happen to be an author.

I wish to cup knowledge in my hand and drink it as one drinks water by the side of the stream.

Always listen to yourself... It is better to be wrong than simply to follow convention.

But I was still alive, and in my book, where there's life, there's hope.

It's been a privilege to write for you and to have you accept me as a storyteller in your lives, Now, as my story draws to an end, may I say only, `Thank you. You have been simply wonderful'.
