More quotes by Tanith Lee
Danger and anger are everywhere. Love is the rarity, the gem buried in the core of the mine, the outpost of God.
Tanith Lee
We all have our dreams. May we find them, and God have mercy on us when we do.
Tanith Lee
In the greater part of humankind there resides an instinct for survival. It is this which can clutch at straws and effect a rescue from them. It is this which can, now and then, outwit fate.
Tanith Lee
I haven't changed. Something's happened to me, that's all.
Tanith Lee
If they had said my writing wasn't good enough, fair enough, that's an opinion. But to say it's too complex is to insult the intelligence of the so-called young.
Tanith Lee
The bitterness of joy lies in the knowledge that is cannot last. Nor should joy last beyond a certain season, for, after that season, even joy would become merely habit.
Tanith Lee
The humble were the elect of God. Did not the priests teach so, in their gemmed, kingly robes, from their towering pulpits?
Tanith Lee
Im a devotee of Dracula, which was a pathfinder in horror and vampire fiction.
Tanith Lee
When I started as a writer, I knew nothing about publishing-nothing about anything!
Tanith Lee
Your dreams will betray you. Go nowhere on a horse that fades.
Tanith Lee
I was reading some complex books in my own youth-and no, I didnt always understand every word, let alone every concept-but I got the main thrust, which was like a lifeline in a fluctuating world.
Tanith Lee
What is any of this to us? Time is endless and ours. Love and Death are only the games we play in it.
Tanith Lee
It was so useful to lie with the truth.
Tanith Lee
The worst vulgarity is to avoid vulgarity solely on the grounds that it is vulgar.
Tanith Lee
I just love writing. It's magical, it's somewhere else to go, it's somewhere much more dreadful, somewhere much more exciting. Somewhere I feel I belong, possibly more than in the so-called real world.
Tanith Lee
You should visit before you pass judgment on a place.
Tanith Lee
How massively the mountains stand, while low to the ground the sand blows. The sand blows on and on. And then there are no mountains, none at all, the sand has kissed and whispered them away. And still, the sand blows on.
Tanith Lee
It's very selfish when I write. I'm not aware, ever, of writing for another person I'm not even really aware of writing for myself.
Tanith Lee
I am interested in most mythology. Celtic or Christian no more than anything else. I will admit to a pleasure and sense of hope in what I see as the basic teachings of Christ, stripped of the nonsense that has sometimes been accumulated about them and the embarrassing misunderstanding.
Tanith Lee
No one more cynical than an idealist.
