I guess I'm destined to be loveless

Each woman is like an instrument, waiting to be learned, loved, and finely played, to have at last her own true music made.

I'm kind of balanced between excited about the potential of the project, and the knowledge that I shouldn't get my hopes up. I like to be practical, and the truth is, these deals fall apart all the time.

We understand how dangerous a mask can be. We all become what we pretend to be.

For me the really cool parts of being an author don't have anything to do with getting onto a bestseller list.

I don't feel beholden to follow the real world at all. The important thing is to know WHY things turned out the way they did. You need to understand the reasons for events, or at least be able to make reasonable guesses about them.

It was wise enough to know itself, and brave enough to be itself, and wild enough to change itself while somehow staying altogether true.
