Most important thing in life is learning how to fall.

One of the many lessons I hope I've learned is how much I underestimated people, their open-mindedness and their willingness to understand. I think, moreover, I underestimated the degree to which everyone has a story. So my advice, for whatever it's worth, is to trust readers, trust the truth and trust the power of storytelling.

Horses are a mirror of who you are. They're emotionally dependent on you.

Too much hard luck can create a permanent meanness of spirit in any creature.

That was the thing to remember about all monsters, They love to frighten people, but the minute you stare them down, they turn tail and run.

You didn't need a college degree to become one of the people who knew what was really going on. If you paid attention, you could pick things up on your own.

Life there was hard and it made people hard.
