More quotes by Judy Blume
Summer Sisters is probably my least autobiographical book. The whole idea started with rowing down the pond. And I heard an explosion. I don't like sudden loud noises. They scare me. And then all these people came running down the hill and jumped in the water in their finery and a bride and groom was with them, and that's where it all started.
Judy Blume
It's strange, but when it comes right down to it I never do fall apart--even when I'm sure I will.
Judy Blume
I never thought about writing. I was married young, I was still in college, as we did then, and I had two babies before I was 25, and I loved them, and I loved taking care of them, but I was a little bit cuckoo, staying at home and not having a creative outlet.

Judy Blume
I meet people on the street or at book signings and they tend to treat me as if they know me, as if we're connected. It's great.
Judy Blume
I stop and think before I start a new book and ask myself do I really want to spend the next year or two or three with these characters because if I don't, then I shouldn't be writing about them.
Judy Blume
Determination and hard work are as important as talent.
Judy Blume
Some characters become your friends for life. That's how it was for me with Betsy-Tacy.
Judy Blume
I am not scared of you, I am scare of these feelings.
Judy Blume
Let children read whatever they want and then talk about it with them. If parents and kids can talk together, we won't have as much censorship because we won't have as much fear.
Judy Blume
Do not let anyone discourage you. If they try: get determined, not depressed.
Judy Blume
I am certainly a fearful person, but fearless in my writing. So there's that other person inside.
