Last night, I had that dream again. I dreamt I had to take a test, in a Dairy Queen, on another planet.

I didn't really understand that Vipassana is a relatively new form of Buddhism that was based on the storage of pain. So the idea is that every time you don't scream, that's your Buddhist side.

I think artists who are attracted to working on the Net will adjust their work to the capabilities of a very small screen.

Literature is the safe and traditional vehicle through which we learn about the world and pass on values from on generation to the next. Books save lives.

When you meet a man who is broken, pick him up and carry him. When you meet a woman who’s broken, put her all into your arms. Cause we don’t know where we come from … we don’t know where we are.

Books are the way the dead talk to the living.

A lot of artists who have a certain style are expected to more or less keep doing their style. It's so easy to get into that rut of production.
