Larry McMurtry
“Most young dealers of the Silicon Chip Era regard a reference library as merely a waste of space. Old Timers on the West Coast seem to retain a fondness for reference books that goes beyond the practical. Everything there is to know about a given volume may be only a click away, but there are still a few of us who'd rather have the book than the click. A bookman's love of books is a love of books, not merely of the information in them.”
Larry McMurtry, Books

“Don't threaten me with your death, Mother. God doesn't want you, and the Devil won't have you. Doesn't want the competition.”
Lynn Hall, The Giver

Gloria Whelan
“You're making yourself too important. Guilt comes from feeling we're at the center of the universe. We're not.”
Gloria Whelan, See What I See
tags: guilt

Clay Aiken
“I never want to produce anything that a family could not enjoy together. I never want to create art that would embarrass my own children later.”
Clay Aiken, Learning to Sing: Hearing the Music in Your Life

Francesca Lia Block
“If Los Angeles is a woman reclining billboard model with collagen-puffed lips and silicone-inflated breasts, a woman in a magenta convertible with heart-shaped sunglasses and cotton candy hair; if Los Angeles is this woman, then the San Fernando Valley is her teenybopper sister. The teenybopper sister snaps bug stretchy pink bubbles over her tongue and checks her lipgloss in the rearview mirror, . . . Teeny plays the radio too loud and bites her nails, wondering if the glitter polish will poison her.”
Francesca Lia Block, I Was a Teenage Fairy
