More quotes by Judy Blume
I don't necessarily want to talk about a book that I read. Even when I love it.
Judy Blume
My mother was a cracker jack typist. And she would come in and sit at my house and type the final type script before I would then send it to the publisher. And it was nice for us.
Judy Blume
What I remember when I started to write was how I couldn't wait to get up in the morning to get to my characters.
Judy Blume
I loved to read, and I think any child who loves to read will read anything, including the back of the cereal box, which I did every morning.
Judy Blume
You've got to enjoy whatever you can and forget about the rest.
Judy Blume
Fear is often disguised as moral outrage.
Judy Blume
I thought [books ban] was crazy. Really my thoughts were This is America, we don't do this here but of course I know a lot better now. And I wasn't the only one. Norma Klein was writing at the same time. Her books were going. So many of us. When you say to me, no you can't do this I say, oh yes I can.
Judy Blume
You've never been in love, she said. You don't understand. If being in love means giving up your freedom, not to mention your opportunities, Caitlin said, Then I haven't missed anything.
Judy Blume
Do not let anyone discourage you. If they try: get determined, not depressed.
Judy Blume
I don't really know exactly how it happened but I don't like the idea that I would ever have said I'm going to write about racism or puberty or bullying.
Judy Blume
I am a big defender of 'Harry Potter,' and I think any book that gets kids to read are books that we should cherish, we should be thankful for them.
Judy Blume
I like one hair, tuna fish, the smell of rain and things that are pink. I hate pimples, baked potatoes, when my mother's mad, and religious holidays.
Judy Blume
I've heard that some authors do dream their books and I would love that if it happened to me, but so far it hasn't. Sometimes I'll get a good idea during the night and if I don't write it down, I won't remember it the next morning.
Judy Blume
There's no book or play or series or anything that speaks to everyone, because then it wouldn't speak to anyone.
Judy Blume
It was a such a surprise, such an absolute shocking surprise to me to not know what you're doing and to find out that this thing that you don't even know how to do, that you're sure you don't know how to do, speaks to so many people and touches so many people in some way.
Judy Blume
Censors never go after books unless kids already like them. I don’t even think they know to go after books until they know that children are interested in reading this book, therefore there must be something in it that’s wrong.
Judy Blume
Snoring keeps the monsters away.
Judy Blume
The best books come from someplace inside. You don't write because you want to, but because you have to.
Judy Blume
our finger prints dont fade from the lives we touch
Judy Blume
I wanted to write honest books for kids because I didn't have those when I was a kid.
