I still write in long hand. I type like a chimpanzee.

I'd be a conservative if I'd never met any. They're selfish, mean-spirited, egocentric, reactionary, and boring.

I loved my parents... but that can never change the fact that my father's violence ruined my childhood.

Happiness is an accident of nature, a beautiful and flawless aberration.

I learned that if I could read, I could cook. I surprised myself I like it.

Without music, life is a journey through a desert.

Good writing is the hardest form of thinking.
