More quotes by Daniel Handler
Well-read people are less likely to be evil.
Daniel Handler

Daniel Handler
After a certain age, you couldn't even say where you were from. You went someplace, and lived there. And then you went someplace else.
Daniel Handler
This is love, to sit with someone you've known forever in a place you've been meaning to go, and watching as their life happens to them until you stand up and it's time to go.
Daniel Handler
People don't always get what they deserve in this world.
Daniel Handler
Having a personal philosophy is like having a pet marmoset, because it may be very attractive when you acquire it, but there may be situations when it will not come in handy at all.
Daniel Handler
A bolt from the blue.
Daniel Handler
There are few sights sadder than a ruined book.
Daniel Handler
The last time I saw you I was trying to throw thumbtacks into your cradle!
Daniel Handler
I’m not a cuckoo, either. I’m a fool is what.
Daniel Handler
