More quotes by Jonathan Carroll
You know people don't get better as we get older- we just get more of who we are.
Jonathan Carroll
Some people are like blue jeans- the older and more beat up they get, the better they look.
Jonathan Carroll
I find you write with one person in mind. Usually for me that one person is my wife, because she's my most severe critic and understands best what I'm trying to do.
Jonathan Carroll
At a Boston signing, someone from the audience asked why I was so obsessed with furniture in my books. The question rattled around in my head. I had no idea that I was obsessed with furniture.
Jonathan Carroll
Its easy to lose sight of what you want when you think you want everything.
Jonathan Carroll
If you are very lucky, you're allowed to be in certain places during just the right season of your life: by the sea for the summer when you're seven or eight and full of the absolute need to swim until dark and exhaustion close their hands together, cupping you in between.
Jonathan Carroll
I write about what interests me. It's very dangerous when you try to satisfy an audience.
Jonathan Carroll

Jonathan Carroll
Sometimes you have to give up on people. Not because you don't care, but because they don't.
Jonathan Carroll

Jonathan Carroll

Jonathan Carroll
Fear pounds on the door to our heart demanding to be let in. Joy is modest and often comes into our lives like a shy person entering a room it can take a while to even notice it's there.
Jonathan Carroll
My memory loves you… it asks about you all the time.
Jonathan Carroll
If I don't feel like writing today or for a few days, I don't. And I don't think about it. It is not an obligation-it is the greatest privilege.
Jonathan Carroll
Learn to wait invariably either things will change or your heart will.
Jonathan Carroll
Krakow is one of my favorite places on earth. It is a medieval city full of young people. A wonderful, striking combination.
Jonathan Carroll
Far more disturbing than any spook house at an amusement park is a ride through the old hometown if you've been away for years.
Jonathan Carroll
Just write about what bites you and damn the rest.
Jonathan Carroll
Very often I'll find out at the end of a book what I put in at the beginning. A sort of process of elimination and discovery in one.
Jonathan Carroll
