Chelsea Cain Quotes

I grew up in Washington State and then eventually found my way back to Iowa City for grad school Picture Quote #1

But people in masks were always assholes. It was a scientific law. Give someone anonymity and all social niceties break down. The Internet had proven that Picture Quote #1

I was born in Iowa City and spent my early childhood on a hippie commune just outside of town Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been more interested in what happens after the bad thing has happened - the fallout of the bad thing, when people are already damaged. I’m less interested in seeing people when they’re fine and following their journey to becoming damaged Picture Quote #1

I guess people might be surprised to know I read comic books. I’m a Marvel girl, as opposed to DC Picture Quote #1

When I say that I went to grad school in Iowa City, people often assume that I went to the famed writers’ workshop MFA program at the University of Iowa. I didn’t. I got a master’s in journalism Picture Quote #1

Every year, I give my dad an advance copy of my latest book. He reads it over the next several nights and says something incredibly supportive. Then he clears his throat nervously and changes the subject Picture Quote #1

I was a library rat and a bookworm. I read all the time. I walked to school reading books. I read under my desk Picture Quote #1

There’s something about the Pacific Northwest, the scale of it, and the fact that not so long ago people came here and died getting here, and then died the first winter they were here. There’s this breathtaking beauty, just a little bit of moss on the tree, just this little thread of danger, and the sinister. And I really like that Picture Quote #1

I love the fact that we are surrounded by this spectacular natural beauty that routinely strikes us dead. Hikers walk off into the woods and are never seen again. And still we tug on our fleece and skip off into the wilderness, not a care in the world Picture Quote #1

I have traveled a fair amount, and I have visited some great cities. I love architecture and museums and castles and ruins and central markets and even double-decker bus tours. But, I am a sucker for a tropical beach Picture Quote #1

Somehow, having an office that I had to go to made me want to work from home, which is easier to do if you don’t have a boss waiting for you at the office, even a very blue office Picture Quote #1

I used to write travel essays, and I was struck by how the fact of writing about a place would change my relationship with it. I would make completely different choices, do things I wouldn’t have normally, because I had to fill this narrative shape Picture Quote #1

Something about the way she moves through the world does not lend itself to the care of fragile objects Picture Quote #1

Ugly people kill people all the time. But when pretty people did, it got attention Picture Quote #1

There will be time to diet when people stopped killing one another Picture Quote #1

Our relationship is complicated by the fact that I am emotionally retarded Picture Quote #1
