“It's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it?”
― L.M. Montgomery

“Am I a genius? I don't think so. Not yet anyway. As Burt would put it, mocking the euphemisms of educational jargon, I'm exceptional-a democratic term used to avoid the damning labels of gifted and deprived (which used to mean bright and retarded) and as soon as exceptional begins to mean anything to anyone they'll change it. The idea seems to be: use an expression only as long as it doesn't mean anything to anybody. Exceptional refers to both ends of the spectrum, so all my life I've been exceptional.”
― Daniel Keyes, Flowers for Algernon

“In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf”
― Eric Carle, The Very Hungry Caterpillar

“Writing is a lonely job. Even if a writer socializes regularly, when he gets down to the real business of his life, it is he and his type writer or word processor. No one else is or can be involved in the matter.”
― Isaac Asimov, I. Asimov: A Memoir
