It's not the vote women need, we should be armed.

Writing is the product of a deeply disturbed psyche, and by no means therapeutic.

There was always a real reason for everything - why spoons tarnished, and jam furred, and people declined into God, or drink, or card games.

Wherever there were horses or ponies the mushrooms always sprang up.

It was the first time that I came face to face with madness and feared it and was fascinated by it.

That is the mystery about writing: it comes out of afflictions, out of the gouged times, when the heart is cut open.

I'm a tuning fork, tense and twanging all the time.
