“Every hundred feet the world changes”

“Every book in the world is out there waiting to be read by me.”

“I'd obviously never heard of the group, but my ignorance in literary matters is to blame for that (every book in the world is out there waiting to be read by me).”

“With every day that passes I am more convinced that the act of writing is a concious act of humility.”

“It's absurd to see an enchanted princess in every girl who walks by. What do you think you are, a troubadour?”

“Probably all of us, writers and readers alike, set out into exile, or at least into a certain kind of exile, when we leave childhood behind...The immigrant, the nomad, the traveler, the sleepwalker all exist, but not the exile, since every writer becomes an exile simply by venturing into literature, and every reader becomes an exile simply by opening a book.”

“No one pays attention to these killings, but the secret of the world is hidden in them.”
