A deserted library in the morning - there's something about it that really gets to me. All possible words and ideas are there, resting peacefully.

I've always liked libraries. They're quiet and full of books and full of knowledge.

Give yourself five minutes to consider how you can turn a miserable situation to your benefit and that light bulb is going to click on.

Reality's just the accumulation of ominous prophecies come to life. All you have to do is open a newspaper on any given day to weigh the good news versus the bad news, and you'll see what I mean.

I just gave them a little scare. A touch of psychological terror. As Joseph Conrad once wrote, true terror is the kind that men feel towards their imagination. (from Super-frog Saves Tokyo)

The world in books seemed so much more alive to me than anything outside. I could see things I'd never seen before. Books and music were my best friends. I had a couple of good friends at school, but never met anyone I could really speak my heart to.

Life is so uncertain: you never know what could happen. One way to deal with that is to keep your pajamas washed.
