More quotes by 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.

If losers can exploit what their adversaries teach them, yes, losers can become winners in the long term.
David Mitchell
I added 'writers' to my list of people not to trust. They make everything up.
David Mitchell
The truth of a myth...is not in its words but its patterns.
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
I'm a novelist, that's how I make my livelihood, and I concentrate on the novels.
David Mitchell
Once any tyranny becomes accepted as ordinary, its victory is assured.
David Mitchell
The earth's a door if you press your ear against it.
