"No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky..." - Quote by John Lennon

“I think it's false, shallow, to be giving to others when your own need is great. The idea is not to comfort people, not to make them feel better but to make them feel worse, to constantly put before them the degradations and humiliations they go through to get what they call a living wage.”

“Everything is true and not true about everything. That’s one thing I’ve learned.”

“If it's illegal to rock and roll, throw my ass in jail!”

“I cannot, nor I will not hold me still; My tongue, though not my heart, shall have his will.”

“Then love-devouring Death do what he dare.”

“To be successful, you can't just run on the fast track; run on your track.”

“So long as men praise you, you can only be sure that you are not yet on your own true path but on someone else's.”

“There is a fine line I have to walk throughout the writing process in a novel. It is this line between drama and melodrama, and it is this line between evoking genuine emotional power and being manipulative.”
