That's why those tapes we made are going to be so great one day, because they'll tell stories that time has swallowed up or distorted or whatever.

It's easy to like someone from a distance.

Like everyone, I'm saddened and horrified by this. All I'll say is that I'm personally trying to pay more attention to the victims than to their murderer. I certainly will not be mentioning the murderer. I don't think he warrants our attention-particularly since he so clearly wanted it.

I don't like reindeer. They seem like regular deer, only more dangerous.

My days had a pleasant identicalness about them. I had always liked that: I liked routine. I liked being bored. I didn’t want to but I did.

You may be smart, but I've been smart longer.

When we think of death, we often imagine it as happening in degrees: We think of a sick person becoming less and less alive until finally they are gone.

I fear oblivion. I fear it like the proverbial blind man who's afraid of the dark.
