It is boring to haunt a writer, and even more so to haunt a celebrity. I would haunt a literary figure! Possibly some superhero, maybe even James Bond. Constant adventures, fights, beautiful women--much more interesting that watching a writer who taps on computer all day long, or a celebrity posing in front of cameras.

There are far more reasons for death than there are for life.

Experience is primarily the ability to restrain our fleeting impulses.

Life consists of nothing but exceptions.

Generally speaking, we can and should say everything. We just have to choose the right time, otherwise the truth can be worse than a lie.

But even if we were to disappear, people would still be divided into people and Others. No matter how those Others were different.People can't get by without Others. Put two people on an uninhabited island, and you'll have a human being and an Other. And the difference is that an Other is always tormented by his differentness. It's easier for people. They know they're people, and that's what they ought to be. And they all have no choice but to be that way. All of them, forever.

That's the way it goes sometimes: in order to help your friends, first you have to help your enemy. Better get used to it.
