"I used to sleep on the floor next to the bed, because I believed that I didn't even deserve a bed to sleep in. And then, one morning, a cockroach crawled onto my leg. I looked at it, and suddenly I awoke from a kind of hypnotic trance in which I had been all my life."

"I can’t take back the past, Nadya. Not even we Unicorns can do that. But I’ll be damned if someone else is going to control our future. I’ve been away for too long, and I will always regret not being there for the Rourakin. But I have returned, and I am not leaving again."
Simon Skiles
"You write once and you can call yourself a writer, but it takes three novels before you can call yourself a novelist. The first two could have just been lucky. One day, I will finish my third, and one day, I will be a novelist."
Michael Kroft
"We don't tend to write about disease in fiction - not just teen novels but all American novels - because it doesn't fit in with our idea of the heroic romantic epic. There is room only for sacrifice, heroism, war, politics and family struggle."
John Green
"What is in your blood matters, but not as much as what is in your heart."
Sonja Yoerg
"I am never going to have anything more to do with politics or politicians. When this war is over I shall confine myself entirely to writing and painting."
Winston Churchill
"Hell didn't make me a monster. It just confirmed all my worst fears about myself."
Richard Kadrey
"I guess I wonder what it would be like, to be living their live instead of mine."
Corey Ann Haydu
"Something has spoken to me in the night...And told me that I shall die, I know not where. Saying: '[Death is] to lose the earth you know for greater knowing; to lose the life you have, for greater life; to leave the friends you loved, for greater loving; to find a land more kind than home, more large than earth."
Thomas Wolfe
"People write about 'How they feel'... 'Where they are now'..."
Deyth Banger
"This life is like a roller-coaster; once you are strapped-in and the ride has started, you aren't getting off."

"Authors want their names down in history I want to keep the smoke coming out of the chimney."
Mickey Spillane
"When we reject our origins, we become the product of whatever soil that we find ourselves planted; the colors of our leaves change as we consume borrowed nutrients with borrowed roots and, like a tree, we grow."
Mike Norton
"Somehow however just knowing that I could fully expect unhappiness to return – if not predictably then nevertheless reliably – was strangely liberating. The point was that even chaos had a structure a beginning and eventually an end. It was possible to live through it. I’d been doing as much for twenty years."
Caroline Kettlewell
"We thought we'd seen it all. The real horror of war is always waiting for you at home. It's waiting, I tell you. We were so damned happy when we got back. We'd made it. We survived. But it's always waiting. Waiting. You let down your guard. And there it is. You can't ever let up. Give up."
James Anderson
"You will never truly realize the value of life until you take your very last breath."
