There is one story and one story only that will prove worth your telling, whether as learned bard or gifted child; To it all lines or lesser guards belong that startle with their shining such common stories as they stray into Picture Quote #1

I once fell in love with a man only because we both belonged to that large and secret club of children who had crazy mothers. We traded stories of the shameless houses to which we could never invite our friends Picture Quote #1

There are only two or three human stories, and they go on repeating themselves as fiercely as if they had never happened before; like the larks in this country, that have been singing the same five notes over for thousands of years Picture Quote #1

Only meaning can make a difference and we all know there's no meaning. All stories express a desire for meaning, not meaning itself. Therefore any difference knowing the story makes is a delusion Picture Quote #1

Do not tell people how to live their lives. Just tell them stories. And they will figure out how those stories apply to them Picture Quote #1

She started telling Lyda stories, odd nameless placeless stories, about the man and the woman, myths or memories, perhaps from her own childhood Picture Quote #1

And then he tells her stories. Myths he learned from his instructor. Fantasies he created himself, inspired by bits and pieces of others read in archaic books with crackling spines Picture Quote #1

The prayers we weave into the matching of socks, the stirring of oatmeal, the reading of stories, they survive fire Picture Quote #1

It would be absurd for me or any other editor to review the authenticity or accuracy of stories that are nominated for prizes Picture Quote #1

Lawyers didn't seriously get involved in the Watergate stories until quite late, when we realized we were on to something Picture Quote #1

Perhaps we are on an insula ex machina, an artificial place not in the real world at all - a backdrop for the stories we must tell Picture Quote #1

There are stories in everything. I've got some of my best yarns from park benches, lampposts, and newspaper stands Picture Quote #1

I hate the way market forces try to separate us out in to the appropriate demographic - basically in order to sell us things. We need to find stories that we can enjoy together, not separately Picture Quote #1

In bad weather, I spent hours drawing action figures on paper, coloring them, backing them on cardboard, then cutting them out and creating whole stories around their lives Picture Quote #1

We all have futures. We all have pasts. We all have stories. And we all, every single one of us, no matter who we are and no matter what's been taken from us - we all dream Picture Quote #1

From what I've read of detective stories, inspectors always do want to drag the pond first Picture Quote #1

I'm a poet. And then I put the poetry in the drama. I put it in short stories, and I put it in the plays. Poetry's poetry. It doesn't have to be called a poem, you know Picture Quote #1

With stories even a page can take me hours, but the truth seems to flow out as fast as I can get it down Picture Quote #1
