More quotes by Truman Capote
I remember things the way they should have been.
Truman Capote
I've got something inside of me, peasantlike and stubborn, and I'm in it till the end of the race.
Truman Capote
Venice is like eating an entire box of chocolate liqueurs in one go.
Truman Capote
But mostly they were lies I told it wasn't my fault, I couldn't remember, because it was as though I'd been to one of those supernatural castles visited by characters in legends: once away, you do not remember, all that is left is the ghostly echo of haunting wonder.
Truman Capote
You can do films for the fun of it, or the thrill of it, but certain films you can't do unless there's something driving you, something you have a passion for that will pull you through.
Truman Capote
Lively, too. Talky as a jaybird. With something smart to say on every subject: better than the radio.
Truman Capote
Whatever relationship you have, man or woman, you have to be very attentive and you have to be a very good friend to them regardless of what they do.
Truman Capote
I was terribly sure trees and flowers were the same as birds or people. That they thought things and talked among themselves. And we could hear them if we really tried. It was just a matter of emptying your head of all other sounds. Being very quiet and listening very hard. Sometimes I still believe that. But one can never get quiet enough.
Truman Capote

Truman Capote
It's redundant to die in Los Angeles.
Truman Capote
All artists are two-headed calves.
Truman Capote
You can't blame a writer for what the characters say.
Truman Capote
And in this moment, like a swift intake of breath, the rain came.
Truman Capote
That's not writing, that's typing
Truman Capote
A work of art is one of mystery, the one extreme magic everything else is either arithmetic or biology.
Truman Capote
I am always drawn back to places where I have lived, the houses and their neighborhoods.
Truman Capote
Traveling wears me out.
Truman Capote
It's bad enough in life to do without something YOU want but confound it, what gets my goat is not being able to give somebody something you want THEM to have.
Truman Capote
Great fury, like great whisky, requires long fermentation.
Truman Capote
All human life has its seasons and cycles, and no one's personal chaos can be permanent. Winter, after all, gives way to spring and summer, though sometimes when branches stay dark and the earth cracks with ice, one thinks they will never come, that spring, and that summer, but they do, and always.
