Quotable

"Wake up, they're ain't no freakin' wizard." --Winston Salem Ad

"I get up every morning determined both to change the world and to have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning the day difficult." --E.B. White

"You've got to be bloody-minded and stay bloody-minded. It's a paradox: you have to have a lot of self-belief but at the same time you can't expect life to kiss you on the nose every morning. It's really pretty brutal.” –Robyn Hitchcock on being a professional creator in today's culture

""If we expose our kids to books and art, nothing but good can come from it." –Author / Illustrator Kevin Henkes

"Not every book is right for every person, but for every person exists the perfect book." –Teresa Schauer, Librarian and Diva of Book Trailers for All

“…I write books for teenagers because I vividly remember what it felt like to be a teen facing everyday and epic dangers. I don’t write to protect them. It’s far too late for that. I write to give them weapons–in the form of words and ideas-that will help them fight their monsters. I write in blood because I remember what it felt like to bleed.” –Sherman Alexie in the Wall Street Journal

"Everything is sweetened by risk." –Alexander Smith
