• A lot of people consider my books to be straightforward, but I think that I write from atmosphere to atmosphere rather than from event to event.

• As a fiction writer you train yourself to think about situations subjectively. I don't really care for narratives that are just A, B, C, D, and then E. I like the aura that fiction has, how it can conjure up dream imagery. It's a sort of emotional speculation that you can shape and work with.

• If I write a paragraph and I don't get a certain lift from it, if I don't feel connected to it emotionally, then it's dead to me. When I'm reading other fiction writers, if I don't get any emotional investment from the writer, if it's just intellectual or clever - you know, most writing that passes as deep is just clever - I don't feel any connection.

• I grew up with the idealistic notion that writing and literature were noble causes. I had no inkling, no sense of what I would eventually encounter in terms of people who weren't being sincere. I'm not saying that it happens always or a lot, but it happens enough that sometimes it makes me feel a little queasy.

• ¡Oh, sí!... La dulce llamada de Dios al hombre. Es cuando Él te llama a Sus brazos. Y es la cosa más hermosa, un renacimiento, una nueva vida. Pero, de todos modos no tengo prisa por averiguarlo.
