"Is it not curious, that so vast a being as the whale should see the world through so small an eye, and hear the thunder through an ear which is smaller than a hare's? But if his eyes were broad as the lens of Herschel's great telescope; and his ears capacious as the porches of cathedrals; would that make him any longer of sight, or sharper of hearing?

"One glance and I knew exactly who and what he was. The classic alpha male, the kind who had spurred evolution forward about five million years ago by nailing every female in sight. They charmed, seduced, and behaved like bastards, and yet women were biologically incapable of resisting their magic DNA."

"Reading is a conversation. All books talk. But a good book listens as well."
Books
"I've worked in television long enough to know that when you stop enjoying that type of thing you go home and do something else."

"Every life is narrow. Our only escape is not to run away, but to learn to love the people we are and the world in which we find ourselves."
Life
"I better make the plot good. I wanted to make it grip people on the first page and have a big turning point in the middle, as there is, and construct the whole thing like a roller coaster ride."
People
"I think most writers feel like they're on the outside looking in much of the time. All of us feel, to a certain extent, alienated from the stuff going on around us."

"For me, disability is a way of getting some extremity, some kind of very difficult situation, that throws an interesting light on people."
