You cannot teach old dogs new tricks.

On great fields something stays.

Learn to think impartially.

If you're nice, if you like yourself, if you treat other people well, you're going to be successful. I guarantee it.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

Fiction is the thing I esteem most in my own work; I feel that, even if it's no good, only I could have written those books.
