I like nothing better in this world than a good clean book, brother.

It's funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you watch them on a screen.

We can destroy what we have written, but we cannot unwrite it.

It is as inhuman to be totally good as it is to be totally evil.

Senseless violence is a prerogative of youth, which has much energy but little talent for the constructive.

To devastate is easier and more spectacular than to create.

I was always on my oddy knocky.

When a man cannot choose, he ceases to be a man.

You got shook and shook till there was nothing left. You lost your name and your body and your self and you just didn't care.

You have no cause to grumble boy. You made your choice and all this is a consequence of your choice. Whatever now ensues is what you yourself have chosen.

Well, everything's a lesson, isn't it? Learning all the time, as you could say.

Working with people feels uncertain, and that's why it takes courage to engage. You can follow all the rules, have good intentions, and still get burned.

There is no point reminding you the memories you don't remember.

Nobody, from that standpoint, is any luckier than I am or will ever be any luckier than I am. It's great.

It is a difficult thing to like anybody else's ideas of being funny.

Why do some people fall out of activity . . . for the same reason that they fall out of bed . . . they are not far enough in it.

I like writing strong women, because as a straight male, there's nothing more attractive to me than a strong girl.

Imagine if you could actually be that happy? That would be powerful, man. People would be tunneling under the street to avoid you. They'd go 'Oh, man - is that happy guy still out there?'

Even people within a relationship can be really alone, and then have to go outside of it in order to find something, whatever it is. It may be very bizarre and maybe something very tender.

My weaknesses are women in high heels, freedom under siege, and ebay. (Steele)

It's a sad day when you have to be disappointed in a fan.
