More quotes by Sue Grafton
The critical lessons in life hold sway whether you like it or not.
Sue Grafton
For the record, I'd like to say that I'm a big fan of forgiveness as long as I have a chance to get even first Kinsey Millhone, V is for Vengeance
Sue Grafton
The character of Rosie is based on a woman who used to live in the same apartment building I lived in many years ago. She's taken on a life of her own, of course.
Sue Grafton
My job as the writer is to fool you. Your job as the reader is to see if you can catch me at it.
Sue Grafton
That's the way the system works. Sometimes you get the bear, sometimes the bear gets you.
Sue Grafton
I was an English major in college with minors in Fine Arts and Humanities.
Sue Grafton
The struggle is what teaches you.
Sue Grafton
School was a source of great suffering to me, but once I learned to read, I disappeared into books, where I was a happy visitor to all the worlds that sprang full-blown from the printed page.
Sue Grafton

Sue Grafton

Sue Grafton
I hate nature. I really do. Nature is composed entirely of sticks, dirt, fall-down places, biting and stinging things, and savageries too numerous to list. And I'm not the only one who feels this way. Man has been building cities since the year oughty-ought, just to get away from this stuff.
Sue Grafton
Sometimes I wonder what the difference is between being cautious and being dead.
Sue Grafton
My notion of an elegant table is you don't leave the knife sticking out of the mayonnaise jar.
Sue Grafton
Writing isn't about the destination-writing is the journey that transforms the soul and gives meaning to all else.
Sue Grafton
There's really no such thing as an 'ex-cop' or a cop who's 'off-duty' or 'retired.' Once trained, once indoctrinated, a cop is always alert, assessing reality in terms of its potential for illegal acts.
Sue Grafton
Lying contains the same hostile elements as a practical joke in that the 'victim' ends up looking foolish in his own eyes and laughable in everyone else's.
Sue Grafton
You can't make anyone love you and you can't stop anyone from dying.
Sue Grafton
Thinking is hard work, which is why you don't see many people doing it.
Sue Grafton
