More quotes by Truman Capote
I'm very scared, Buster. Yes, at last. Because it could go on forever. Not knowing what's yours until you've thrown it away.
Truman Capote
Sometimes when I think how good my book can be, I can hardly breathe.
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.
Truman Capote
In my garden, after a rainfall, you can faintly, yes, hear the breaking of new blooms.
Truman Capote
You can love somebody without it being like that. You keep them a stranger, a stranger who's a friend.
Truman Capote

Truman Capote
I remember things the way they should have been.
Truman Capote
all his prayers of the past had been simple concrete requests: God, give me a bicycle, a knife with seven blades, a box of oil paints. Only how, how, could you say something so indefinite, so meaningless as this: God, let me be loved.
Truman Capote
Anyone who ever gave you confidence, you owe them a lot.
Truman Capote
I told you: you can make yourself love anybody.
Truman Capote
The brain may take advice, but not the heart.
Truman Capote
The enemy was anyone who was someone he wanted to be or who had anything he wanted to have.
Truman Capote
I prefer to underwrite. Simple, clear as a country creek.
