From Ian Mcewan
I don't hold grudges.
Reading reviews makes you thin-skinned. It's like waves washing layers off your skin.
I don't believe there's any inherent darkness at the center of religion at all. I think religion actually is a morally neutral force.

In my experience an appreciative letter from a fellow writer means a lot.
