You throw your best punch, otherwise don't do it..

You're always allowed to be better..

Love and death are the great gifts that are given to us; mostly they are passed on unopened..

There is always someone worse off than yourself..

Our senses are always part of the process..

I'm very claustrophobic..

There is no future without education..

Obviously it could be, because it was..

Be less than what you are so that you can become more..

Nobody will listen to you unless they sense that you like them..

What could be worse than having to be seen resorting to your own life..

Just because I’m single and don’t date a lot, that doesn’t make me a lesbian..

While success has hardly come overnight for me, it always comes..

It takes no courage to say or do what's popular..

My only fear is the unknown..

For me, fiction's great gift - to writer and reader, alike - is freedom..

The disciplined are free..

There is hardly anybody good for everything, and there is scarcely anybody who is absolutely good for nothing..

Sinatra asked me out..

There seemed a gulf impassable between them..

Life is about coming back and mastering how to come back..
