I write about moments, and I don't make blanket statements about anything because no one has all the answers; nobody's come up with a foolproof way to do anything when it comes to emotions.

Often it isn't the mountains ahead that wear you out, it's the little pebble in your shoe.

The life-tree of practice is single-minded application.

You should wake up in the morning and say, 'What do I want to do today? What's going to make me happy?'

Life's better now. I wouldn't do it all over again, though. It's funny how life works. Maybe it was meant to happen for many reasons, because my life in many ways richer.

Pain is fuel for a fitter world

Every game designer should make one explicitly world-changing game. Lawyers do pro bono work, why can't we?

I probably read 100 times more than I write, but that way when I move my characters through it, I know.
