Everything comes home, my mother used to say; every word spoken, every shadow cast, every footprint in the sand. It can't be helped; it's part of what makes us who we are.

I have an advanced degree in procrastination and another one in paranoia.

A spider brings good luck before midnight and bad luck after.

I love it when my books cause controversy, when people argue violently about the ending.

I think everybody has a secret life.

The wind always brings us back to the same wall

Some people spend the whole of their lives sitting waiting for one train, only to find that they never even made it to the station.
