More quotes by Judy Blume
The best books come from someplace inside. You don't write because you want to, but because you have to.
Judy Blume
I think about Lenaya and Hugh. Will they know how much I've changed this year? Will they have changed too? I'll wait until tomorrow to find out. And then it's possible I won't find out after all. Because some changes happen deep down inside of you. And the truth is, only you know about them. Maybe that's the way it's supposed to be.
Judy Blume
The only thing that works with writing is that you care so passionately about it yourself, that you make someone else care passionately about it.
Judy Blume

Judy Blume
A library is where you meet fascinating characters you never forget.
Judy Blume
I love picture books. I think some of the best people in children's books are the ones who create their own picture books. I wish I could say I'm one of them, but I'm not.
Judy Blume
I love to talk with children. I try to visit schools but it's hard for me to travel when I'm trying to write. Some authors are able to do both.

our finger prints dont fade from the lives we touch
Judy Blume
Books opened up a whole new world to me. Through them I discovered new ideas, traveled to new places, and met new people. Books helped me learn to understand other people and they taught me a lot about myself. ... Some books you never forget. Some characters become your friends for life.
Judy Blume
I was Little Miss Perfect. That's where all the secrets come in, because you know damn well you are not perfect, but you think your parents want you to be. And so you pretend.
Judy Blume
We must, we must, we must increase our bust.
Judy Blume
I'm lucky that so many children visit my website. At least I get to talk with them that way.
Judy Blume
Do not let anyone discourage you. If they try: get determined, not depressed.
Judy Blume
Its all about your determination, I think, as much as anything. There are a lot of people with talent, but its that determination.
