More quotes by Truman Capote
Actually, I think friendship and love are exactly the same thing.
Truman Capote
I am always drawn back to places where I have lived, the houses and their neighborhoods.
Truman Capote
I loved her enough to forget myself, my self pitying despairs, and be content that something she thought happy was going to happen.
Truman Capote
Technically I feel total fluidity in writing. I feel there's nothing technically that I can't do the way a certain sort of pianist feels that. But that doesn't mean it comes easily. It doesn't.
Truman Capote
Anticipation is anxiety. I have always had a very extreme anxiety thing.
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.

Truman Capote
In my garden, after a rainfall, you can faintly, yes, hear the breaking of new blooms.
Truman Capote

Truman Capote
Finishing a book is just like you took a child out in the back yard and shot it.
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
There is really no practical help that one can offer: it is a matter of self-discovery, of one's own conviction, or working with one's own work your style is what seems natural to you. It is a long process of discovery, one that never ends. I am working at it, and will be as long as I live.
Truman Capote
When I'm writing, I never write more than four hours a day.
Truman Capote
I knew Lee Harvey Oswald, and I knew Jack Kennedy. The odds against that-one person knowing all four of those men-must be astounding.
Truman Capote
The feeble-minded, the neurotic, the criminal, perhaps, also, the artist, have unpredictability and perverted innocence in common.
Truman Capote
It’s better to look at the sky than live there
Truman Capote
My major regret in life is that my childhood was unnecessarily lonely.
Truman Capote
She had only one flaw. She was perfect, otherwise whe was perfect.
Truman Capote
It was the most haunting room I've ever seen. Because you know what's in it? All the leftovers, all the paraphernalia that the different condemned men had had with them in the holding cells.
Truman Capote
