Big Book Quotes

I have insane curiosity as to what happened in all these events. I will never know. I’m not a researcher. I don’t possess that kind of mind. I have a researcher who compiles the fact sheets and chronologies that allow me to write these big books of mine Picture Quote #1

A big book is like a serious relationship; it requires a commitment. Not only that, but there’s no guarantee that you will enjoy it, or that it will have a happy ending. Kind of like going out with a girl, having to spend time every day with her - with absolutely no guarantee of nailing her in the end. No thanks Picture Quote #1

Read a lot. Expect something big, something exalting or deepening from a book. No book is worth reading that isn’t worth re-reading Picture Quote #1

Virginia Woolf came along in the early part of the century and essentially said through her writing, yes, big books can be written about the traditional big subjects. There is war. There is the search for God. These are all very important things Picture Quote #1

I read ‘Scarlett’ recently, and that was a killer comic book. The ‘Black Widow’ was pretty rockin’. There is a big list of killer chicks that are just rockin’ Picture Quote #1

Sarah Palin’s book is big, 400 pages. She wrote the book herself and agonized over every word, and so will you Picture Quote #1

Aunt Loretta has something that maybe you could call class. It’s not the made-up kind that Grandma has, fake pearls and Sunday hats, but something that comes to you as if you were born to the king and queen. Aunt Loretta understands better than Grandma that reading a big book is more classy than wearing fake pearls watching TV Picture Quote #1

The entire Quran is a big joke. If it was not so violent, it would be the biggest comic book ever written Picture Quote #1

The big advantage of a book is that it’s very easy to rewind. Close it and you’re right back at the beginning Picture Quote #1

I finished a big book the other day. 421 pages. That’s a lot of coloring when you think about it Picture Quote #1

A good writer cannot avoid having social consciousness. I don’t mean this about small pieces of writing, but about a big book. If it’s a big book, there has to be more than one undertow Picture Quote #1

A big book is a hard thing to manage - I find the computer makes it easier to keep it in order, and to keep the old drafts (which I sometimes go back to) without drowning in paper Picture Quote #1

I always sent my mother all these huge books I made. When my mother died, I was cleaning her cupboard, and these big books were only 20 pages long. She edited out, maybe burned, every single photograph where I’m naked Picture Quote #1

One of the best things Henry Miller ever said was that art goes all out. It’s all out. It goes full length. . . . A big book is an all-out book in which you limit your life to things that pertain directly to the book Picture Quote #1

I’ve read a lot of books on the laws of attraction, and in my home I have a big book on Muhammad Ali, which I’ve read, because he is like a hero of mine, but other than that, no, I’m not a big reader Picture Quote #1

If you want to get together in any exclusive situation and have people love you, fine - but to hang all this desperate sociology on the idea of The Cloud-Guy who has The Big Book, who knows if you’ve been bad or good - and CARES about any of it - to hang it all on that, folks, is the chimpanzee part of the brain working Picture Quote #1

I have learned to do more with less, so you don’t see the big books anymore Picture Quote #1

A big book is a big misfortune Picture Quote #1
