It feels so exhausting to be so bad at something I loved so much.

The villain is the person who knows the most but cares the least.

Art and love are the same thing: It’s the process of seeing yourself in things that are not you.

The essays are very solipsistic and self-absorbed, I'm totally conscious of that. To me, book writing is fun, and I basically just write about things that are entertaining to myself.

Anybody who says they are a good liar obviously is not, because any legitimately savvy liar would always insist they're honest about everything.

I believe that whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you... stranger.

Disney World is celebrating its 40th birthday! You can tell the characters are getting old. In addition to Snow White's seven dwarfs, she now has 25 cats.

The most boring thing in the world? Silence.

It takes deliberate and continuous effort to carve out time in our overfull schedules to listen to the voice of God.

Sometimes I feel like there is so much to be afraid of, and sometimes I feel like there is nothing left to fear.
