"I think it's very important for writers and artists generally to be witnesses to the world, and to be transparent. To let other people speak... to travel... to experience the world. And memorialize it."
Observation
"I'm drawn to failure. I feel like I'm contending with it constantly in my own life."
Growth
"Night comes to the desert all at once, as if someone turned off the light."
Nature
"A daydreamer is prepared for most things."
Creativity

"I won't tell you that the world matters nothing, or the world's voice, or the voice of society. They matter a good deal. They matter far too much. But there are moments when one has to choose between living one's own life, fully, entirely, completely-or dragging out some false, shallow, degrading existence that the world in its hypocrisy demands. You have that moment now. Choose!"
