For a long time now I have tried simply to write the best I can. Sometimes I have good luck and write better than I can.

Going to another country doesn’t make any difference. I’ve tried all that. You can’t get away from yourself by moving from one place to another. There’s nothing to that.

I'm tired of everybody. Please forgive me.

The further you go in writing the more alone you are.

Creation's probably overrated. After all, God made the world in only six days and rested on the seventh.

Those who say they want to be writers, and aren’t writing, don’t.

That every day should be a fiesta seemed to me a wonderful discovery.
