“I am nothing but literature, and can and want to be nothing else.”
“I may not be able to say all I think, but I am not going to say anything I do not think.”
“I am a person before I am anything else. I never say I am a writer. I never say I am an artist...I am a person who does those things.”
“I am willing to see things differently. I am willing to see love.”
“Gale is mine. I am his. Anything else is unthinkable.”
