“It's not common for a woman on television, especially if she's the mom of the family, to be funny. She's usually a straight man or foil.”
“If this were fiction, could even the most brilliant novelist contrive to make credible so short a period in which pride had been subdued and prejudice overcome?”
“I can take a lot of pats on the back. I love it when I get admiring letters from people. And, of course, I'd love it if the critics would notice me, too.”
“If you're going to put yourself above everybody else, you might end up alone.”
“When you're a little kid, you don't see color, and the fact that my friends were black never crossed my mind. It never became an issue until I was a teenager and started trying to rap.”
“I had a 2-week courtship with a fellow student in the fiction workshop in Iowa and a 5-minute wedding in a lawyer's office above the coffee shop where we'd been having lunch that day. And so I sent a cable to my father saying, 'By the time you get this, Daddy, I'll already be Mrs. Blaise!'”
“There are mythologies that are scattered, broken up, all around us. We stand on what I call the terminal moraine of shattered mythic systems that once structured society. They can be detected all around us. You can select any of these fragments that activate your imagination for your own use.

“Paul Otrembaâ€™s remarkable first book,Â The Currency,Â is an intriguing foray into lyricÂ epistemology that tries to come to ter ms with the implacable, paradox-ridden nature ofÂ knowledge and experience. These are deeply felt, deeply meditated poems guided by a sensibilityÂ highly attenuated to the physical world. In their openness to friendship and love and in theirÂ fearless directness, they remind me of the work of Larry Levis and Jon Anderson. Like LevisÂ and Anderson, Otremba promises to be an influential and important voice for his generation.”
