Nog één ding, jongen, wat je in je oren moet knopen: het gaat niet om hoe een verhaal begint. Ook niet om hoe het eindigt. Maar om wat daartussenin gebeurt.
Walter MoersOrdinary folk prefer familiar tastes - they'd sooner eat the same things all the time - but a gourmet would sample a fried park bench just to know how it tastes.

Reading is an intelligent way of not having to think.

In my profession it isn’t a question of telling good literature from bad. Really good literature is seldom appreciated in its own day. The best authors die poor, the bad ones make money — it’s always been like that. What do I, an agent, get out of a literary genius who won’t be discovered for another hundred years? I’ll be dead myself then. Successful incompetents are what I need.

Αν ίσως μάζευε κανείς δέκα χιλιάδες θαλάσσιους ελέφαντες μέσα σε μια κοιλάδα του βυθού και τους έβαζε να μουγκρίσουν όλοι μαζί από έρωτα, κι αν έβαζε παρέα και ένα εκατομμύριο μπάμπουρες να ζουζουνίζουν βόσκοντας μέλι και γύρη, θα μπορούσε να πλησιάσει κάπως το επίμονο μουγκρητό της ικανοποίησης που έβγαινε από τα χείλια του Βασιλικού Φαλαινόσαυρου.

Walter MoersWriters are there to write, not experience things. If you want to experience things, become a pirate or a Bookhunter. If you want to write, write. If you can't find the makings of a story inside yourself, you won't find them anywhere.
Walter MoersPicture to yourself the most beautiful girl imaginable! She was so beautiful that there would be no point, in view of my meagre talent for storytelling, in even trying to put her beauty into words. That would far exceed my capabilities, so I'll refrain from mentioning whether she was a blonde or a brunette or a redhead, or whether her hair was long or short or curly or smooth as silk. I shall also refrain from the usual comparisons where her complexion was concerned, for instance milk, velvet, satin, peaches and cream, honey or ivory, Instead, I shall leave it entirely up to your imagination to fill in this blank with your own ideal of feminine beauty.

A bluebear has twenty-seven lives. I shall recount thirteen-and-a-half of them in this book but keep quiet about the rest. A bear must have his secrets, after all; they make him seem attractive and mysterious.
