“I know divers, and divers men know me, which love me as I do them: yet if I should pray them, when I meet them in the street openly, they would abhor me; but if I pray them where they be appointed to meet me secretly, they will hear me and accept my request.”
“To Forget Venice is a tour de force of ventriloquism. Elegant, contemporary, and wry, the voice at its center is also capable of disarming flights of imagination as it enters and inhabits other lives across time and gender. The glittering, fetid city emerges as a complex metaphor for the human heart’s simultaneous tenderness and capacity for cruelty, its ‘silver glow / a local specialty: filth / disguised as ornament.’ This Venice is unforgettable.”
“We take almost all the decisive steps in our lives as a result of slight inner adjustments of which we are barely conscious.”

“I think the most remarkable thing about ice, in my opinion at least, is that it occurs in many, many, many different forms.

“I think I was just a strange kid. I was definitely a weirdo. I ran a newspaper that had really dark stories all the time. My mom was always fun, she had this large box of costumes and I remember dressing up as a door-to-door saleswoman with a wig and this small suitcase I was using as a briefcase. I was walking down the street like that; I was sure I was fooling everyone.”
“Thanks to the Internet, I think, a lot of hate has moved to more anonymous venues. A lot of people get their aggression out that way. Or they do some drive-by hatingâ€”you know, where theyâ€™re in a car and they yell something stupid out the window at a stoplight and then take off. Itâ€™s just not as involved and laborious to be a hater as it used to be. Thereâ€™s not as much face-to-face interaction. Facebookâ€™s made â€™em lazy.”
“I love my fellow creatures - I do all the good I can - yet everybody says I'm such a disagreeable man!”
“I don't care what TV show you work on, even a movie for that matter, it's all about time and money eventually.”
