• Coming from the William Morris mailroom as I have, this book
  is the truth of what I experienced, and it reminded me of all the
  fun and craziness and fake drama that trained me for this
  profession. It's hilarious, a bit crazy, and it should make anyone
  wonder why people put their careers in the hands of these
  idiotsand remember I'm one of them. If you have a child,
  make sure he or she reads this before starting at the bottom-
  anywhere.

• I am not talking to you from the point of view of just wishful thinking, or imaginary craziness.

• The theme of the collection this time is MONSTER. It's not about the typical Monster you find in sci-fi and video games. The expression of the Monsters I have made has a much deeper meaning. The craziness of humanity, the fear we all have, the feeling of going beyond common sense, the absence of ordinariness, expressed by something extremely big, by something that could be ugly or beautiful. In other words, I wanted to question the established standards of beauty.

  Rei Kawakubo

• Nothing I read about grief seemed to exactly express the craziness of it; which was the interesting aspect of it to me - how really tenuous our sanity is.

• I wish you a wrestling match with your Creative Muse that will last a lifetime. ... I wish craziness and foolishness and madness upon you. May you live with hysteria, and out of it make fine stories - science fiction or otherwise. Which finally means, may you be in love every day for the next 20,000 days. And out of that love, remake a world.

  Ray Bradbury

• No matter how much I wanted all those things that I needed money to buy, there was some devilish current pushing me off in another direction -- toward anarchy and poverty and craziness. That maddening delusion that a man can lead a decent life without hiring himself out as a Judas Goat.
