“I am writing a book entitled "Conquest." Please be ready. It is a book children should red.”

“I'm writing the next novel in the Thanatology series, entitled the Lurking Man...Thank God for erasers.”

“Between the covers a book can be a sin. I have spent many hours in search of a waking dream. And once having learned to read, I couldn’t imagine my life otherwise. The indifferent children around me didn’t share my enthusiasm for the written word. Some might sit for a good story while told, but if a book had no pictures they showed scant interest.”

“Write it down, boy. If you come across a passage in your reading that you’d like to remember, write it down in your little book; then you can read it again, memorize it, and have it whenever you wish.”

“I am transcribing a book that I have, in a sense, not yet written, and in another sense, have always written, and in another sense, am currently writing, and in another sense, am always writing, and in another sense, will never write.”

“God help me! I am small and alone but I must help them; and I most not waste a moment, because every moment another soul dies.”

“Books to enthral as well as entertain”
