Paul Cezanne

A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art.

If isolation tempers the strong, it is the stumbling-block of the uncertain.

With an apple I will astonish Paris.

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.

I'd date someone younger or older; age doesn't matter to me. Or looks, really - it's all about maturity.

There are so many people who don't know small towns exist. When I write, I want to give my readers two things: one is a sense of consolation, and two, I want to make them laugh.
