"Once you can write an alphabet, you can write a book of 100 million pages. It's just a matter of believing it as possible, and taking the cross millimetre by millimetre."

"There is another alphabet, whispering from every leaf, singing from every river, shimmering from every sky."

"I know the X’s and O’s of football. I just don’t know the other 24 letters. And as a writer, this bothers me."

"I often fantasize about torturing some of the lazier letters of the alphabet, like C, U, and E, because together they only manage to accomplish as much as the solitary letter Q."
