Hardly Anybody Recognizes The Most

I Don't Have Time To Read Nonfiction.

Most People Write A Lot Of Autobiography, But When I Came To Write Autobiography I Discovered That Nothing Interesting Had Ever Happened To Me. So I Had To Take The Situation And Invent Stories To Go With It.

Other People Get Into Occupations By Accident Or Design; But Writers Are Born. I Could Work At Selling Motels, Or Slopping Hogs, For Fifty Years, But If Someone Asked My Occupation, I'd Say Writer, Even If I'd Never Sold A Word. Writers Write. Other People Talk.

Growing Up Is A Ritual, More Deadly Than Religion, More Complicated Than Baseball, For There Seem To Be No Rules. Everything Is Experienced For The First Time.

If You Build It, He Will Come.
