More quotes by Fay Weldon
by and large, nothing is as bad as you fear, or as good as you hope.
Fay Weldon
Marriage is what happens when one at least of the partners doesn't want the other to get away.
Fay Weldon
A 'weakness,' I now realize, is nothing but a strength not properly developed.
Fay Weldon
So much for the fruits of love. Love? What's love? Sex, ah, that's another thing. Love has babies: sex has abortions.
Fay Weldon
Writing is an act of generosity toward other people.
Fay Weldon
Take me! Well, not quite take me, love me now, take me eventually
Fay Weldon
memory is so selective wishful thinking presses it into service all the time.
Fay Weldon
If you wake up in the morning with a great sense of the things that have to be done in the day in order to get through to the next day, you lose the sense of the day as any kind of end in itself.
Fay Weldon
Of course you have to believe in destiny that everything is sheer chance is an intolerable notion.
Fay Weldon
one learns best, and writes best, in a state of defiance.
Fay Weldon
If infinity is as they describe it, all things are not just possible but in the end certain.
Fay Weldon
Truly Alice, books are wonderful things to sit alone in a room and laugh and cry, because you are reading, and still be safe when you close the book and having finished it, discover you are changed, yet unchanged! To be able to visit the City of Invention at will, depart at will – that is all, really, education is about, should be about.
Fay Weldon
I am an ordinary person, but carried to extremes.
Fay Weldon
Every time you open your wardrobe, you look at your clothes and you wonder what you are going to wear. What you are really saying is 'Who am I going to be today?
Fay Weldon
Nothing happens, and nothing happens, and then everything happens.
Fay Weldon
A woman has all too much substance in a man's eyes at the best of times. That is why men like women to be slim. Her lack of flesh negates her. The less of her there is, the less notice he need take of her. The more like a male she appears to be, the safer he feels.
Fay Weldon
There is no real escape from autobiography into biography. The self has to be faced, or we die.
Fay Weldon
I know that I'm a real writer because sometimes I write a story just because I want to not because someone's told me to.
Fay Weldon
If you do nothing unexpected, nothing unexpected happens.
Fay Weldon
I was seduced by secrets, which are to true love as artificial sweetener is to sugar, calorie-free but in the long run carcinogenic, not the real thing, and only a peculiar aftertaste in the mouth to tell you so, to warn you.
Fay Weldon
