Writing on your own is, in a way, a very lonely profession. There's no one there to help you.

A single conversation with a wise man is better than ten years of study.

It doesn't matter where you are, you are nowhere compared to where you can go.

To underestimate one's thirst, to pass a given landmark to the right or left, to find a dry spring where one looked for running water - there is no help for any of these things.

Instead of the traditional emphasis on the sanctity of life, bioethics began to stress the quality of life, meaning that many damaged humans, young and old, don't qualify for personhood because their lives have lost value.

In my mind, there is nothing so illiberal, and so ill-bred, as audible laughter.

You want a happy ending, but not such a ridiculous happy ending that it doesn't mean anything to anybody.

The best reason for having dreams is that in dreams no reasons are necessary.

The biggest surprise has been making the adjustment after losing a game. In the NBA you could lose tonight and you have to put that game behind you because you have another game the next night.

Cunning has little honor.

My parents are famously not part of the gestalt of the fashion industry.

It's funny. You succeed, but now where are you gonna go from there? I've got to keep proving that I can laugh or cry more real each time.

A Christianity without a passion to turn the world upside down is not reflective of apostolic Christianity.

I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you.

I searched for years I found no love. I'm sure that love will never be a product of plasticity.

I'm not a person who has people tell me things in parking garages.

All the great novels, all the great films, all the great dramas are fictions that actually tell us the truth about us or about human nature or about human situations without being tied into the minutia of documentary events. Otherwise we might as well just make documentaries.

Oscar Wilde turned the world upside down and was able to laugh at it, and hopefully by the time I'm 120 and worn out, that's what I will achieve. I love being alive so much.

I travel a lot. If you look at my suitcase, everything is extremely well-packed and well-folded; people who travel with me are impressed at how organized I am. Some would refer to me as a maniac for this.

Often something more simple would be better. Sometimes I put things together - a shirt, a sweater, a jacket - and it's too complicated. I would have worn only a v-neck sweater, it would have been better. It's not the clothes but it's how you wear them sometimes.

During my adolescence, our family dwelt in rural Alaska. We were dirt poor, Depression-era poor. Tarpaper shack and kerosene lamps. In those days I read because that's all I had. I wrote because that's all I had.

In 1938, I was given a one-year teaching appointment, which was sensational for British universities. This was converted into the usual four-year contract for an Assistant Lecturer in 1939.

You look at someone like Beyonce singing 'Single Ladies,' when we all know she's married. Some of it is just for entertainment.

The thing that every parent hopes for is that the baby's healthy, I'm healthy. No matter how you feel, that's the most important thing.
