A non-event ... is better to write about than an event, because with a non-event you can make up the meaning yourself, it means whatever you say it means.
Margaret AtwoodAnybody who writes a book is an optimist. First of all, they think they're going to finish it. Second, they think somebody's going to publish it. Third, they think somebody's going to read it. Fourth, they think somebody's going to like it. How optimistic is that?
Margaret AtwoodMore powerful than God, more evil than the Devil; the poor have it, the rich lack it, and if you eat it you die?
