Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“I showed the grown ups my masterpiece, and I asked them if my drawing scared them. They answered:"why be scared of a hat?" My drawing was not a picture of a hat. It was a picture of a boa constrictor digesting an elephant.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

John Dufresne
“Inez and I had been in the same book club for a while. She once told me that literary theory was reading without imagination, and I’ve loved her ever since.”
John Dufresne, No Regrets, Coyote

William Goldman
“Look. (Grown-ups skip this paragraph) I'm not about to tell you this book has a tragic ending. I already said in the very first line how it was my favorite in all the world. But there's a lot of bad stuff coming. ”
William Goldman, The Princess Bride

Rainbow Rowell
“I’m extra good at wanting things. I want things until I feel sort of sick about them. I want enough for two normal people, at least.”
Rainbow Rowell, Landline

Ogden Nash
“A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of.”
Ogden Nash, The Private Dining-room and Other Verses
