Orson Scott Card

Orson Scott Card
I'm neutral on lying, seeing as how there's times when the truth just hurts people.
Orson Scott Card
Well, how do I know that they don't know the answer unless I ask?
Orson Scott Card
As long as you keep getting born, it's alright to die some times.
Orson Scott Card
Short stories are designed to deliver their impact in as few pages as possible. A tremendous amount is left out, and a good short story writer learns to include only the most essential information.
Orson Scott Card
You’re not a human being until you value something more than the life of your body. And the greater the thing you live and die for the greater you are.
Orson Scott Card
Because never in my entire childhood did I feel like a child. I felt like a person all along―the same person that I am today.
Orson Scott Card
