Quote

The mortality of all inanimate things is terrible to me, but that of books most of all.

I wrote the worst novel ever.

I am the worst judge of my books.

I think what a lot of fiction is, is the imagining of the worst so as to prepare ourselves.

I don't get far enough into a boring book to hate it.

A book's flaws make it less predictable.

My greatest fear is disappointing the reader, so each book has to be better than the one before.

The best books arise from some ultimate question in the author.

The dirtiest book of all is the expurgated book.
