“People rarely said what they thought, or revealed how they felt. No one was honest.”

“I'd always disparaged the games people played in pursuit of love--or the next hook up. The whole thing was a competition to see who could get how far, and I could never figure out if there was more luck or skill involved, or some unknowable combination of the two. People rarely said what they thought, or revealed how they felt. No one was honest.”

“One thing, I try to be honest. And what is revealed is often rather hideously unflattering.”

“It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too.”

“Be honest about what you see, get out of the way and let the story reveal itself”

“God only rarely reveals the future. When he does so, it is for one reason: it's a future that was written so as to be altered.”
