The truth is that personality inevitably bleeds into all forms of our intellectual life. We all extrapolate from our own lives in order to understand the world.

Crippled and crazy, we hobble toward the finish line, pen in hand.

The old story is true:Women have to be less emotional than men.

I myself have perceived women's actions as more aggressive than I would have in men because I too am walking around with my own biases. The way to fight them is to become conscious of them.

There is no future without a past, because what is to be cannot be imagined except as a form of repetition.

Writing fiction is like remembering what never happened.

Pain is always emotional. Fear and depression keep constant company with chronic hurting.
