Quotes

  • That man was so much larger than life that there's no scale by which to measure him. Most of Wilson's dialogue, if put down on paper, seems either vulgar or obscene.
  • Sometimes I think it sounds like I walked out of the room and left the typewriter running.
  • What is success? It is a toy balloon among children armed with pins.
  • A book is never finished; it's abandoned.
  • Men are not against you, they are merely for themselves.
  • Everyone needs a warm personal enemy or two to keep him free of rust in the movable parts of the mind.
