“Something for nothing is nothing. Do not work for free. Don’t be so trusting in business: I have learned this the hard way. Don’t say yes to people in power just because they have power. Have skin in the game, get a good lawyer, and fight like a big girl for what is yours.”

“The sense that you are in touch with something really different - completely human and extremely understandable emotionally - but really different. That's one of the great things novels do.”

“When someone tells me that they want to quit their job and open a catering company because they love to entertain, I give them a little test. I ask them to imagine how it would feel to throw a party almost every day for an entire year. Now imagine throwing multiple parties on the same day. Next, I ask them how they feel about physical and mental exhaustion (often at the same time) and guests with endless complicated food allergies. Finally, ask if, keeping all this in mind, they’re prone to panic attacks.”
