She asked me the definition of beauty. So I told her name in my reply!

We have conversations with each other most nights - Sylvia Plath and me!

I don't care about wearing branded clothes or flaunting brands. But I do care about the books that I read and the music that I listen to.

I don't spend money on books. I write them myself.

I meet people and they become chapters in my stories.

If you write a kid's book only for kids, then you have failed.

There is no greater feeling of accomplishment than to create a world that solely exists in your imagination and be able to pull someone into this hidden place inside of my thoughts. To make someone care for a person that has manifested from my dreams, to make them hate me for putting them in danger, and for them to ask to be taken on another journey with me when it is all said and done is why I write.

...writers are a savage breed, Mr. Strike. If you want life-long friendship and selfless camaraderie, join the army and learn to kill. If you want a lifetime of temporary alliances with peers who will glory in your every failure, write novels.

In order to write the book you want to write, in the end you have to become the person you need to become to write that book.

Your personal growth is the only thing that matters. You own and write your story no one else does. Believe in your unique steps up the mountain.

Just being a writer allows one the maturity to have random conversations with random strangers!

You may follow the footstepsThe whole day will passWith you going around in circlesYet not reaching anywhere at last!

When life seems like an uphill task do not ever give up on yourself or on life! Travel to a new place, learn a new language, embrace a new culture, play a musical instrument, read a good book, watch the sunrise, experience the sunset, go for a swim in the river, hug a tree, sit near the lake, or climb a mountain! You will fall in love with life all over again!

I have always enjoyed my solitude. It gives me time to think and to write.

I write because there is a madness within me to express my thoughts in words. I write because I feel passionately about certain feelings and there is this yearning within me to express these feelings in words. I am not comfortable meeting a lot of people. I like solitude. I like thinking and I dont like talking much.

If you surrender to your imagination, the story will write itself.

I prefer to be on the side of losers, the misunderstood or lonely people rather than writing about the strong and powerful.
