"The strong survive, but the courageous triumph."
"Some writing courses will advise you to write what you know. I've always thought this is very odd advice ... because it means, for example, that I should not be writing about Nicholas Flamel, because I didn't live in France in the 15th Century, I was not an alchemyst, am not immortal (despite the rumours) and do not know magic."

"Master the rules of the game until you can play it better they can."
"Some stories wait their turn to be told, others just tap you on the shoulder and insist you tell them."

Now they see only a tiny portion of the visible spectrum, hear only the loudest of sounds, their sense of smell is shockingly poor and they can only distinguish the sweetest and sourest of tastes."
