More quotes by Daniel Handler

Daniel Handler
You know I want to be a director, but you could never truly see the movies in my head and that, Ed, is why we broke up.
Daniel Handler
I can't think of a story that doesn't have something terrible in it. Otherwise, it's dull. So when I embarked into the world of picture books, my first thought was to do something about the dark.
Daniel Handler
I’m reminded of a book my father used to read me,” she said. “A bunch of elves and things get into a huge war over a piece of jewelry that everybody wants but nobody can wear.
Daniel Handler
And then like a song we'd forgotten was even on the mix, you stepped into the house and my whole life.
Daniel Handler
We laughed the rest of the way, because the point of this story is, it is not the cookies. It is the love.
Daniel Handler
No matter who you are, no matter where you live, and no matter how many people are chasing you, what you don't read is often as important as what you do read.
Daniel Handler
