Strange Quotes

I didn’t want to be a writer, but I became one. And now I have many readers, in many countries. I think that’s a miracle. So I think I have to be humble regarding this ability. I’m proud of it and I enjoy it, and it is strange to say it this way, but I respect it Picture Quote #1

I’d love to have a room full of taxidermy. I’d be devastated if my cat, Archimedes, ever died. I was debating the other day with a friend whether I should stuff him, but don’t know whether he would end up looking like himself. I’d be really sad if he looked strange Picture Quote #1

Florida is a strange place: hot, beautiful, ugly. I love it here, and how nothing makes sense but still, somehow, there is a rhythm Picture Quote #1

I’ve never liked the moment of seeing something beautiful - a sunset, a moose, an elephant - and then raising a camera and trying to capture it for some future moment. That’s always struck me as strange Picture Quote #1

What’s strange is how many beginning writers seem to think that grammar is irrelevant, or that they are somehow above or beyond this subject more fit for a schoolchild than the future author of great literature Picture Quote #1

People think being famous is so glamorous, but half the time you’re in a strange hotel room living out of a suitcase Picture Quote #1

I don’t think of myself as being funny. But life takes strange turns Picture Quote #1

It’s a very strange phenomenon being hated by people you’ve never met. Some journalists just seem to hate me and everything I do, and it’s disconcerting because I’ve never met this person Picture Quote #1

Strange, how being left out of a secret always feels like a betrayal of trust Picture Quote #1

For some reason I always rejected it, but respectfully Picture Quote #1

Just the life of doing what I do, being in the public eye, it’s a stressful environment... You feel strange, self-aware, very foolish.

I’m just making a movie, and people want all these things from me.’ Picture Quote #1
