“Note to goyim readers: not every Jew who grew up in Brooklyn was rich. And as long as I’m on it, here’s another note: fuck you. That’s all. Whether or not you assumed we were rich, if you’re a goyim, fuck you. But keep reading, and tell your friends to buy the book.”
― Gilbert Gottfried

“Words! Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, and vivid, and cruel! One could not escape from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them!

― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

“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.”
― Edward Gorey

“Imagination is like a muscle. I found out that the more I wrote, the bigger it got.”
