More quotes by David Mitchell
As many truths as men. Occasionally, I glimpse a truer Truth, hiding in imperfect simulacrums of itself, but as I approach, it bestirs itself & moves deeper into the thorny swamp of dissent.
David Mitchell
I have always unswervingly held, that God, in our civilizing world, manifests Himself not in the miracles of biblical age, but in progress. It is progress that leads humanity up the ladder towards the God-head. No Jacob's ladder this, no, but rather Civilization's Ladder, if you will.
David Mitchell
Japanese food makes me feel particularly good.
David Mitchell
I'm from a time and place where bigheadedness was a really savage crime, and you'd get cut down for it by your peers and parents.
David Mitchell
I really wish they hadn't made the set out of asbestos.
David Mitchell
Why ask a question whose answer would demand ten more questions?
David Mitchell
If war's first victim is truth, its second is clerical efficiency.

Under the Enrichment Laws, consumers have to spend a fixed quota of dollars each month, depending on their strata. Hoarding is an anti-corpocratic crime.
David Mitchell
I pass through many Me's in the course of my day, each one selfish with his time. The Lying-in-Bed me and the Enjoying-the-Hot-Shower Me are particularly selfish. The Late Me loathes the pair of them.

David Mitchell
There's a link between bigotry and bad spelling.
David Mitchell
Implausible truth can serve one better than plausible fiction
David Mitchell
I think all writers of my age who are brought up on films probably by the age of 16 have seen many more films than they have read classics of literature. We can't help but be influenced by film. Film has got some great tricks that it's taught writers.
David Mitchell
Two people who are a little bit deluded in each other's favour. That's what love is, isn't it?
David Mitchell
Truth is singular. Its 'versions' are mistruths.
David Mitchell
How vulgar, this hankering after immortality, how vain, how false. Composers are merely scribblers of cave paintings. One writes music because winter is eternal and because, if one didn't, the wolves and blizzards would be at one's throat all the sooner.
David Mitchell
The act of memory is an act of ghostwriting.
David Mitchell
I love HBO productions, actually, like 'The Wire.'
David Mitchell
I lost my balance when the train pulled away, but a human crumple zone buffered my fall. We stayed like that, half fallen. Diagonal People.
David Mitchell
If I want to act relaxed, it's going to take all my cunning, skill, and concentration.
