“Books mean all possibilities. They mean moving out of yourself, losing yourself, dying of thirst and living to your full. They mean everything.”
“To lose yourself in a book is the desire of the bookworm. I mean to be taken. That is my desire.”
“Creativity is the art of being yourself through all the possible means and ways.”
“Each day means a new twenty-four hours. Each day means everything's possible again. You live in the moment, you die in the moment, you take it all one day at a time.”
“Still, being alone doesn't mean you have to be miserable. In that sense it's different from losing something. You've still got yourself, even if you lose everything else. You've got to have faith in yourself and not get down just because you're on your own.”
“Patriotism is easy to understand in America; it means looking out for yourself by looking out for your country.”
