There's no room for demons when you're self-possessed.

I'm fond of kissing. It's part of my job. God sent me down to kiss a lot of people.

Now it's dedicated to my grandparents and to both of my parents. The first book was dedicated to my mother so I thought maybe it was my father's turn, but then I realized that everyone would jump on that and assume I'd had some falling out with my mother, which is absolutely not the case.

Ambition is exhausting. It makes you friends with people for the wrong reasons, just like drugs.

I didn't confide in men. Well, I didn't confide in anyone.

I must say I can appreciate it when males are very male. Like Harrison [Ford], for instance. He's pretty butch. I guess I prefer butch to terribly fey.

I like having written better than I like having acted.
