animal thoughtful intelligent
Researching 'Lone Wolf,' I was amazed at how thoughtful and intelligent these animals are. There has never been a documented attack against a human by a wolf that wasn't provoked by the human.
mean past self
Everyone has a story; everyone hides his past as a means of self-preservation. Some just do it better, and more thoroughly, than others.
growing-up people missing
I wonder if, as you get older, you stop missing people so fiercely. Maybe growing up is just focusing on what you've got, instead of what you don't.
beautiful interesting
She's not classically beautiful, but somehow that only makes her more interesting.
children thinking stories
When was the last time someone read aloud to you? Probably when you were a child, and if you think back, you'll remember how safe you felt, tucked under the covers, or curled in someone's arms, as a story was spun around you like a web.
powerful believe drug
I believe that having something to hope for - even if it's just a better tomorrow- is the most powerful drug on this planet.
crash destined places relationship sooner
They were at different places in the same relationship and like anything that's out of alighment, they were destined to crash sooner or later.

The catch was this: Power always involved a loss of humanity.
believed blood change dream fourteen learned love ran speed truly
It was that she truly believed you could be fourteen when you learned how love could change the speed your blood ran through you, how it made you dream in kaleidosocope color.
crazier hurt hurts love loves
It's crazy, right? To love someone who's hurt you? It's crazier to think that someone who hurts you loves you.
book avid library
It's because of libraries that books like mine get recommended to book clubs and avid readers, who in turn pass them onto others looking to be whisked away from the world for a little while...and perhaps to learn a bit about themselves in the process.
book thinking want
She's not like anyone I've ever seen before. When I'm not with her, I want to be. And when she opens the book and I see her face, I can barely remember what I'm supposed to say, much less how to speak at all." I test the words on my tongue. "I think I might be in love with her. But how can I really know, since the only love I've ever experienced was written for me?
thinking broken promise
I could think whatever I wanted to, but realized that any promises I made myself were destined to be broken.
book thinking land
There are certain things that I'll hear about and that I think will make a great book and I put it in a file. Sometimes it's a situation that interests me, and I don't even realize what I'm trying to say about it until I get closer to it. Sometimes the book after that I've written 125 pages of, and I can tell you what the book is after that. I just sort of have a linear progression, but more than anything, the topics land in your lap. I don't feel that I go out searching for them.
