“All good writing is built one good line at a time. You build a novel the same way you do a pyramid. One word, one stone at a time, underneath a full moon while the fingers bleed.”
― Kate Braverman

“It's everybody, I mean. Everything everybody does is so — I don't know — not wrong, or even mean, or even stupid necessarily. But just so tiny and meaningless and — sad-making. And the worst part is, if you go bohemian or something crazy like that, you're conforming just as much only in a different way.”
― J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey

“All writers must go from now to once upon a time; all must take care not to be captured and held immobile by the past.”
― Margaret Atwood

“I love you to pieces, distraction, etc.”
― J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey
