More quotes by Terry Brooks
My interests are different now than they were thirty years ago.
Terry Brooks
We forget that what matters begins with the imagination.
Terry Brooks
Well, I think that as a country, we've drifted away from appreciating the importance of imagination.
Terry Brooks
Hurt leads to bitterness, bitterness to anger, travel too far that road and the way is lost.
Terry Brooks
Even after Sword was published, I was still only thinking about the next book, Elfstones.
Terry Brooks
We must nurture and love, if life is to have any real meaning. But First we must find a way to survive against the things that prevent us from doing so.
Terry Brooks
What we have in life that we can count on is who we are and where we come from, she thought absently. For better or worse, that's what we have to sustain us in our endeavors, to buttress us in our darker moments, and to remind us of our identity. Without those things, we are adrift.
Terry Brooks
A cat never discusses his business with humans, not even Princesses. A cat never explains and never apologizes. A cat never alibis. You must accept a cat as it is and for what it is and not expect more than the pleasure of its company.
Terry Brooks
When she cried, he would say, there is nothing wrong with crying. Your feelings tell you who are. They tell what is important. Don't ever be ashamed of them.
Terry Brooks
What I want to write about has changed somewhat, and the scope of the storytelling has changed accordingly.
Terry Brooks
After all, you put a lot into creating a universe and everything that goes with it, and it seems a shame to use it only once.
Terry Brooks
We live out our lives as we are meant to live them-with some choice, with some chance, but mostly as a result of the persons we are.
Terry Brooks
I think I make better use of language and imagery than when I started out.
Terry Brooks
Writing fantasy lets me imagine a great deal more than, say, writing about alligators, and lets me write about places more distant than Florida, but I can tell you things about Florida and alligators, let you make the connection all on your own.
Terry Brooks
It's better to die in pursuit of your dreams than to live a life without hope.
Terry Brooks
I want to kick-start your imagination and let you discover the places it can take you.
Terry Brooks
Cats can do whatever they want, whenever they want, without regard to what anyone says or does. Rather like Princesses.
Terry Brooks
Anyway, several rewrites later, Del Rey Books did publish my first novel, and it did become the first work of fiction on the New York Times trade paperback bestseller list.
Terry Brooks
The future is an ever-shifting maze of possibilities until it becomes the present. The future I have shown you tonight is not yet fixed. But it is more likely to become so with the passing of every day because nothing is being done to turn it aside. If you would change it, do as I have told you.
Terry Brooks
You shouldn't believe everything you hear you're young, not stupid.
