"With great enthusiasm, pursue your dreams."
"Whoever dare dream, must do much activity to realize the dream."
"And in vain does the dreamer rummage about in his old dreams, raking them over as though they were a heap of cinders, looking into these cinders for some spark, however tiny, to fan it into a flame so as to warm his chilled blood by it and revive in it all that he held so dear before, all that touched his heart, that made his blood course through his veins, that drew tears from his eyes, and that so splendidly deceived him!"

"I think therefore I am. Does that mean 'I feel therefore I'm not'? But only through feeling can I get at thinking."
"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."

It isn't. When we are objective we are subjective too. When we are neutral we are involved. When we say 'I think' we don't leave our emotions outside the door. To tell someone not to be emotional is to tell them to be dead."
