Melvin Burgess Quotes

I read all the time so it’s difficult to say who my all-time favourites are. One is George Orwell, because he makes political writing so simple a child could understand it Picture Quote #1

In terms of sheer writing I might have done most of my work by 11. If you get up at 6:30 or 7 you can get a huge amount done by 11 and have the rest of the day off if you want to, though I have to check my accumulating e-mails. No one ever sends me horrible e-mails. Although some of my books are supposed to be hated, no one ever tells me Picture Quote #1

When I was a child I used to read books by Gerald Durrell, who founded Jersey Zoo. He had a job collecting animals for zoos and for a long time that is what I wanted to do. Later when I was a teenager I had a fantastic English teacher called Mrs. Stafford. Her enthusiasm made me decide to be a writer Picture Quote #1

Being a teenager is as difficult as living with one. And we’ve all been there. Perhaps that’s the reason we’re so hard on them Picture Quote #1

I get up between 6:30 and 8 am. I used to make a cup of coffee first thing, but now I have warm water with a bit of lemon juice in it. I’ve cut down on things as I was getting fat Picture Quote #1

Love is a secret society, a community for two Picture Quote #1

Sometimes maybe you need an experience. The experience can be a person or it can be a drug. The experience opens a door that was there all the time but you never saw it. Or maybe it blasts you into outer space... All that negative stuff. All the pain... It just floted away from me, I just floated away from it... up and away Picture Quote #1

Try it. You don’t have to do it ever again if you don’t want to. But try it once. Try everything once Picture Quote #1

Anarchy loves theatre. That’s the whole point. People forget that. You have to laugh at the devil, not fight him. They’ll always have more guns, they’ll always have more bombs that go off with a bigger bang. No matter how revolting you become they’ll always be willing to be more revolting to you. They’ve had so much more practice Picture Quote #1

He’d come back, all open and helpless, and I suppose that’s what won her around in the end. But it was so sad, because it was being himself that he found so difficult to cope with Picture Quote #1

That’s her secret, I suppose. Everything that happens to her she’s proud of. She makes it special by it happening to her Picture Quote #1

She didn’t have to be offered anything; it was already hers. She was more herself than anyone else ever was and as soon as I clapped eyes on her I knew I wanted to be myself just as much as she was herself Picture Quote #1
