• Balance. It was all about balance. That had been one of the first things that she had learned: the centre of the seesaw has neither up nor down, but upness and downness flow through it while it remains unmoved. You had to be the centre of the seesaw so the pain flowed through you, not into you. It was very hard. But she could do it!

• Estar de gira con un libro es como estar en el balancín cuando eres pequeño. La emoción está en tener a alguien con quien jugar, y en elevarte en el aire, pero luego estás a merced de quienes te sujetan, y si es tu hermano mayor, o Paul Wolfowitz, saltan hacia arriba, de modo que te estrellas y te haces daño.

• Each of my books has taken me a different length of time to write - eight months for Seesaw Girl, eight months for Shard, three years for When My Name Was Keoko! The publisher takes another year and a half to work on the book, so altogether each book can take up to three or four years to publish.

• S. I Live in a Hut (Vivo en una cabaña), de S. E. Smith, tiene un título engañosamente sencillo, teniendo en cuenta que el cerebro de esa cabaña contiene galaxias de invenciones: Por la noche, cuando tus soldados rezan sin cesar para que llueva menos y haya más ropa interior, mis soldados hacen ropa interior con la lluvia. Estos poemas oscilan entre la desesperación y el placer, pero el placer gana la batalla. Smith es una poeta que da saltos mortales en la cuerda floja y sus poemas te harán mirar cualquier cosa y todo con nuevos ojos: Durante días intenté frotar la nueva peca // de mi mano hasta que me di cuenta de lo que era / y empecé a concederle su soberanía.

• I first felt successful when I was 13 and in a show called "Seesaw." I came offstage and heard the applause of the theater audience and felt a sense of accomplishment. Around that time, my role model for success was Burt Lancaster. He was one of the first actors in Hollywood to start his own production company, and I respected him because he created something he believed in.
