More quotes by 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
We must, we must, we must increase our bust.
Judy Blume
I love to watch movies.
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
Its all about your determination, I think, as much as anything. There are a lot of people with talent, but its that determination.
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
Why are we acting as if we're angry. Are we angry?
Judy Blume
Snoring keeps the monsters away.
Judy Blume
If all you leave in the library is books that you think speak to everyone, what are you going to have? You'd have nothing.
Judy Blume
I think we made out [sexuality changing]. I think that's really great, and we didn't jump into intercourse. And there were no blow jobs.
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
First of all I can only focus on one creative project at a time. I wish I could focus on two, because I really only write.
Judy Blume
Do not let anyone discourage you. If they try: get determined, not depressed.
Judy Blume
Something awful happens to a person who grows up as a creative kid and suddenly finds no creative outlet as an adult.
Judy Blume
Determination and hard work are as important as talent.
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
My only advice is to stay aware, listen carefully, and yell for help if you need it.
Judy Blume
I always had stories inside my head and one day I just decided to start writing them down. I didn't actually decide.
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.
