It's still National Library Week. You should be especially nice to a librarian today, or tomorrow. Sometime this week, anyway. Probably the librarians would like tea. Or chocolates. Or a reliable source of funding.

When most people said I'm psychic, you see, they meant I have an overactive but unoriginal imagination/wear black nail varnish/talk to my budgie when Anathema said it, it sounded as though she was admitting to a hereditary disease which she'd much prefer not to have.

He had had a severe shock some weeks earlier, when, having narrowly failed to capture a large grey-brown hare for his dinner, it had stopped at the edge of the forest, looked at him with disdain, and said, 'Well, I hope you're proud of yourself, that's all,' and had scampered off into the long grass

She was the storm, she was the lightning, she was the adult world with all its power and all its secrets and all its foolish casual cruelty.

She had the feeling that the door was looking at her, which she knew was silly, and knew on a deeper level was somehow true.

I kept starting 'Anansi Boys' as a movie and stopping, and eventually wrote the novel and was happy.

Perhaps this is the ultimate freedom, eh, Dreamlord? The freedom to leave.

Here you go, she said. I don't need it anymore. I'm very grateful. I think it may have saved my life, saved some other people's death.

You must never imagine, that just because something is funny, it is not also dangerous.

When I was very young, I would occasionally stick 'f****' where I knew something contentious might happen so that the editor could remove the word 'f***' very proudly and leave whatever else was around it.

Sometimes I wish that just solving the plot problems was enough. And then elves would go and do all the actual work moving the words around.

How can you be happy in this world? You have a hole in your heart. You have a gateway inside you to lands beyond the world you know. They will call you, as you grow.

It does not matter where you come from, if you walk toward the truth you will reach it, whatever path you take.

Birds are the last of the dinosaurs. Tiny velociraptors with wings. Devouring defenseless wiggly things and, and nuts, and fish, and, and other birds. They get the early worms. And have you ever watched a chicken eat? They may look innocent, but birds are, well, they're vicious.
