  • Civilization is the distance man has placed between himself and his excreta.

  • Fantasy is literature for teenagers.

  • I am a writer and always was; being a writer is an integral part of my identity. Being published, being well regarded, is a component of that identity.
  • It is comparatively easy to become a writer; staying a writer, resisting formulaic work, generating one's own creativity — that's a much tougher matter.
