Edward Gorey quotes about
writing thinking boredom
I really think I write about everyday life. I don't think I'm quite as odd as others say I am. Life is intrinsically, well, boring and dangerous at the same time. At any given moment the floor may open up. Of course, it almost never does; that's what makes it so boring.
dream people scream
It's well we cannot hear the screams we make in other people's dreams.
book cat life-is-good
Books, Cats, Life is Good.
believe long realizing
There are so many things we've been brought up to believe that it takes you an awfully long time to realize that they aren't you.
