People always did like to talk, didn’t they? That’s why I call myself a witch now: the Wicked Witch of the West, if you want the full glory of it. As long as people are going to call you a lunatic anyway, why not get the benefit of it? It liberates you from convention (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
Those times are over and gone, and good riddance to them, too. We were hopelessly high-spirited.

And we’re in charge, while the figures who used to command our respect are wasting away (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
I write because I admire the act of rationalization, of seeking clarity in one’s understanding of the complexities of life, and I’m bad at it. I’m slow. Writing, which is an arduous and slow process, proceeds at the same rate as my sloth-like mind (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
The story of Mirror Mirror is in many ways a story about evolution. Its about the evolution of a child into an adult. Its about the evolution of those dwarves into something a little less rock-like, a little more humanoid. Its about the evolution of history, too, from the darkness of the Middle Ages into the light of the Age of Reason (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
I had written childrens books for 14 years before I published Wicked. And none of them were poorly reviewed, and none of them sold enough for me to be able to buy a bed (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
I was just about to begin writing Mirror Mirror, within about a week of it, when September 11, 2001 happened. I found myself incapable of caring about fiction-making for a number of months (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
Have you ever noticed when you look in a mirror, unless you’re really depressed or something, the person in the mirror generally looks a little more competent, a little more curious, a little more intelligent than you actually feel yourself to be? They often look more interesting and more soulful (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
My first job was scooping ice cream at Friendly’s in Albany, New York. I hated the work, most of my colleagues, and the uniform, and I more or less lost my taste for ice cream permanently (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
...No opening sermons concerning children with humps and fins for limbs, who nonetheless, immortal souls all, deserve life, liberty, and the pursuit of Happy Meals. (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
It’s the place of the story, beginning here, in the meadow of late summer flowers, thriving before the Atlantic storms drive wet and winter upon them all. (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
It’s the only condition I know. Bitter Love, Loneliness, contempt for corruption, blind hope. It’s where I live. A permanent state of bereavement. This is nothing new. (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
Your childhood, said Yackle coaxingly, as if she could smell his thoughts. As if she could sniff out those passages he hadn’t chosen to retail at drink parties. Her words lulled him. The past, even a bitter past, is usually more pungent than the present, or at least better organized in the mind. (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
Her sister’s shoes. They sparkeled even in the darkening afternoon. They sparkeled like yellow diamonds, and embers of blood and thorny stars. (Gregory Maguire Quotes)
