Quotes

  • The more rules you impose on a creative intelligence, of course, the fewer problems it can solve.
  • Mother had been talking in that bizarre way a lot lately; it sounded like the Olsen novels, “back when men were full of manliness, fields were full of soybeans, small towns were full of hicks, and life was full of deeply significant aching empty meaningless existential nothingness,” as Tom liked to put it.
  • You thought you could treat me the way you did everybody else and beat me up for being smarter than you. Because you’ve always been the big king of the class, haven’t you, Your Majesty? Well, you’re not anymore. You were never anything but the plain old class bully, and now you’re the ex-bully. And the only reason people are bullies is because they’re stupid.
  • Papa always says there’s room for everyone, but some people certainly take theirs up without making it interesting.
  • He wasn’t as dumb as I thought, I realized—just not interested in the same things I was.
  • Writing about yourself is addictive. I hope all you kids noticed that. If you feel like autobiography, try heroin. Lots safer and easier to control…
