Frasi di Piers Anthony

“I think it's a shame that something as creative and vital to the nature of the human species as story-telling is largely controlled by the soulless cretins known as publishers.”

“When you steal from the library, you are preventing anyone else from reading that book, and the very notion makes me want to drop you in the Void.”

“One day you'll discover that the opinions of worthless people are worthless.”

“Happy children do not seem to grow up to be writers.”

“Adults had the notion that juveniles needed to suffer. Only when they had suffered enough to wipe out most of their naturally joyous spirits and innocence were they staid enough to be considered mature. An adult was essentially a broken-down child.”

“Every person professes to love good and hate evil, but in his actions his real preferences emerges.”

“For our stories are not yet finished, and perhaps will never be.”

“I realized suddenly that I was in an impossible situation, and there was really no way out. No acceptable way. I could not go on — so I stopped.”
