I fear dying in the middle of a book. It would be so annoying to write 80,000 words and not get to the end. I'm phobic about it. So when I'm writing a book I leave messages all over the house for people to know how the story ends, and then someone can finish it for me.

Anthony Horowitz

Well, you know what, I'm 60 years old, and I've been interested in politics since I was on my daddy's knee. During the 1948 election, we were praying for Truman. I know a lot about politics.

Roger Ebert

Alice Englert

Strength of character may be learned at work, but beauty of character is learned at home.

Henry Drummond

Marguerite Gardiner

I do not want people to be agreeable, as it saves me that trouble of liking them.

Jane Austen

Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily.

Napoleon Bonaparte

Laughter is by definition healthy.
