"The light was as intense as a love affair. I was blinded, delighted, not just because it was warm and wonderful, but because nature measures nothing. Nobody needs this much sunlight. Nobody needs droughts, volcanoes, monsoons, tornadoes either, but we get them, because our world is as extravagant as a world can be. We are the ones obsessed by measurement. The world just pours it out."

"Niagara Falls is a magnificent fall of dancing, singing, glowing, and flowing liquid love that exists to reconnect broken hearts."
"A hungry cat does no favour to a trapped bird!"

On the other side tangles of flowering currant, lilac, wild rose, and rhododendron closed them in."

"It's a symbiotic process, writing. What I am makes the books-not part of me, all of me-and then the books themselves inform the sense of what I am. So the more I can be, the better the books will be."
"You cannot disown what is yours. Flung out, there is always the return, the reckoning, the revenge, perhaps the reconciliation. There is always the return. And the wound will take you there."
"I was sixteen and my mother was about to throw me out of the house forever, for breaking a very big rule, even bigger than the forbidden books. The rule was not just No Sex, but definitely No Sex With Your Own Sex."
"I spin worlds where we could be together. I dream you. For me, imagination and desire are very close."
"The human heart is my territory. I write about love because it's the most important thing in the world. I write about sex because often it feels like the most important thing in the world."
