Respect for the truth comes close to being the basis for all morality.

If all those around you believe some particular thing$$$ you will soon be tempted to share in that belief.

A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct.

What does a mirror look at?

Imagination is the key to my lyrics. The rest is painted with a little science fiction.

It's none of their business that you have to learn how to write. Let them think you were born that way.

You know it makes one feel rather good deciding not to be a bitch.

I wouldn't want to live without strong misgivings.

I'm not running away from my responsibilities. I'm running to them. Theres nothing negative about running away to save my life.

If I had to give young writers advice$$$ I would say don't listen to writers talking about writing or themselves.
