There Are People Who, Like Houses, Are

Every Author, However Modest, Keeps A Most Outrageous Vanity Chained Like A Madman In The Padded Cell Of His Breast.

If It's To Be, It's Up To Me.

What Pursuit Is More Elegant Than That Of Collecting The Ignominies Of Our Nature And Transfixing Them For Show, Each On The Bright Pin Of A Polished Phrase?

What I Like In A Good Author Is Not What He Says But What He Whispers.

Style Is A Magic Wand, And Turns Everything To Gold That It Touches.
