More quotes by James Frey
In life we often look to others for simple, but difficult answers, despite the fact that we have those answers ourselves.
James Frey
The greatest rules of dramatic writing are conflict, conflict, conflict.
James Frey
Lying became part of my life. I lied if I needed to lie to get something or get out of something
James Frey
Be strong. Live honorably and with dignity. When you don't think you can, hold on.
James Frey
I feel strong. Not strong enough to face myself, but strong enough to keep going.
James Frey
You only live once, buy Picassos whenever possible.
James Frey
Laughing and Love. They are both drugs.
James Frey
The past doesn't matter. People cling to it because it allows them to ignore the present.
James Frey
I don't speak with proper grammar. I don't speak with dialogue attribution. I don't speak with quotation. I don't care about any of that stuff. It's about rhythm, and it's about what's in their [the character's] head, and what feels more natural. And it's about speed. I want things to move.
James Frey
Addicts, as a group, generally score far above average o intelligence tests. Why? You tell me. I guess maybe we're smart enough to have figured out how shitty things are and we decide addiction is the only way to deal with it.
James Frey
I don't write with an outline. I don't often know what I'm going to do as I'm writing. And I do everything by feel and by instinct.
James Frey
I will not allow people to impose rules on me that don't make sense to me. And I live and work very much outside the literary world and the literary system. What they think and what they believe and what their rules are mean nothing to me.
James Frey
That's what ever great writer, I believe, has done over the course of time - is they've figured out new ways of telling the same stories.
James Frey
You don't have to follow anybody's conventions.
James Frey
I can run fast when I want to run fast, and I've always been good at destroying things.
James Frey
I often think of death. True. Suicide is a reasonable option. True. My sins are unpardonable. I stare at the question. My sins are unpardonable. I stare at the question. My sins are unpardonable. I leave it blank.
James Frey
Words can't say this. The one word love means too little for what it is. It means everything and that is still not enough.
James Frey
When I was a little boy, Marvin Hagler was my idol. He got no respect for most of his career. His fighting style was straight ahead. He took every shot thrown at him, and he kept punching back 'til he won. I honestly feel that's how I am. I take big shots from people. But I keep going.
James Frey
There are places from which you cannot return. There is damage that can be irreparable.
James Frey
My life has been like all the lives, long and hard and full of sadness and confusion and horror, a frightening, difficult dream punctuated by brief moments of joy. And as is the case with all people's lives, the moments of joy are never often enough and never long enough.
