There is always stardust in my eyes when I look at you, my love. ~ Ellen Read
Australian Author quotes by Ellen Read
Alexandra gasped and fell backwards. The blood drained from her face as ice tracked through her veins. She scrambled back to the keyhole and stared at the men in the room. ~ Ellen Read
Australian Author quotes by Ellen Read
journalists fea their loss of authority in the digital age will undermine their ability to hold government to account. Yet the government has much more to worry about because the internet has empowered vested interests, and Oppositions, in a way that effectively cancel an election result within weeks of the final ballot being counted. p236 ~ George Megalogenis
Australian Author quotes by George Megalogenis
With each daunting step, the armor I'd always worn like a protective cloak unraveled, and my footing faltered. ~ E.R. Pierce
Australian Author quotes by E.R. Pierce
The Heart is the engine, the Brain is the steering wheel, and the Mind is the essence of the Body. ~ Serena Jade
Australian Author quotes by Serena Jade
Shane Claiborne, author of The Irresistible Revolution, once surveyed a group of people who identified themselves as "strong followers of Jesus" and asked them, "Did Jesus spend time with the poor?" Around 80 percent replied in the affirmative, leaving a disturbing 20 percent of so-called strong followers of Jesus who think Jesus didn't spend time with the poor. That this could be the case should remind us of the levels of Christian ignorance about our founder and Lord. But the more disturbing fact is that Claiborne asked the same group, "Do you spend time with the poor?" Only 2 percent replied that they did. There is for many an almost complete disconnect between our beliefs about Jesus and our actions. This disconnection lies at the nub of the problem facing the church. ~ Michael Frost
Australian Author quotes by Michael Frost
That distinctive singular stamp of himself is one of the main reasons readers come to love an author. The way you can just tell, often within a couple paragraphs, that something is by Dickens, or Chekhov, or Woolf, or Salinger, or Coetzee, or Ozick. The quality's almost impossible to describe or account for straight out - it mostly presents as a vibe, a kind of perfume of sensibility - and critics' attempts to reduce it to questions of "style" are almost universally lame. ~ David Foster Wallace
Australian Author quotes by David Foster Wallace
Zen is a journey of exploration and a way of living that, in and of itself, does not belong to any one religion or tradition. It is about experiencing life in the here and now and about removing the dualistic distinctions between "I" and "you" between "subject" and "objective", between our spiritual and our ordinary, everyday activities. ~ Chris Prentiss
Australian Author quotes by Chris Prentiss
It's always hard for an author to determine his own intentions, especially in retrospect. ~ Paul Kingsnorth
Australian Author quotes by Paul Kingsnorth
Keep creating: the world yearns to celebrate your next masterpiece. ~ Ken Poirot
Australian Author quotes by Ken Poirot
The author cites researcher David Howard's idea of post-traumatic growth. Howard contends that some individuals faced with a traumatic event actually develop new strength. ~ Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Australian Author quotes by Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Blank pages are like monsters that haunt my dreams until I feed them words. ~ V.M. Sawh
Australian Author quotes by V.M. Sawh
This part concerns the unshakable feeling one gets, one thinks, after the unthinkable and unexplainable happens
the feeling that, if this person can die, and that person can die, and this can happen and that can happen ... well, then what exactly is preventing everything from happening to this person, he around whom everything else happened?
Just as some police
particularly those they dramatize on television
might be familiar with death, and might expect it an any instant
so does the author, possessing a naturally paranoid disposition, compounded by environmental factors that make it seem not only possible but probable that whatever there might be out there that snuffs out life is probably sniffing around for him, that his number is perennially, eternally up, that his draft number is low, that his bingo card is hot, that he has a bull's-eye on his chest and target on his back. It's fun. You'll see. ~ Dave Eggers
Australian Author quotes by Dave Eggers
I feel that historical novelists owe it to our readers to try to be as historically accurate as we can with the known facts. Obviously, we have to fill in the blanks. And then in the final analysis, we're drawing upon our own imaginations. But I think that readers need to be able to trust an author. ~ Sharon Kay Penman
Australian Author quotes by Sharon Kay Penman
Someone putting down $25 of his or her hard-earned money to buy my product, then doing it again because they felt the payoff was worth it. That's as good as it gets for an author. ~ Brad Thor
Australian Author quotes by Brad Thor
Characters and events in this book are fictitious. Any apparent similarity to real persons is not intended by the author and is either a coincidence or ~ David Foster Wallace
Australian Author quotes by David Foster Wallace
Evil is not the opposite of love; evil
is the absence of love." by Robert W. Chapman. Author of A Certain Fall. ~ Robert W. Chapman
Australian Author quotes by Robert W. Chapman
When you're an author, you're always two people. Jasper the writer is different from Jasper the person at home. ~ Jasper Fforde
Australian Author quotes by Jasper Fforde
Companionate love is neurologically different from passionate love. Passionate love always spikes early, then fades away, while companionate love is less intense but grows over time. And, whereas passionate love lights up the brain's pleasure centers, companionate love is associated with the regions having to do with long-term bonding and relationships. Anthropologist Helen Fisher, the author of Anatomy of Love and one of the most cited scholars in the study of sex and ~ Aziz Ansari
Australian Author quotes by Aziz Ansari
When romances do really teach anything, or produce any effective operation, it is usually through a far more subtle process than the ostensible one. The author has considered it hardly worth his while, therefore, relentlessly to impale the story with its moral as with an iron rod-or, rather, as by sticking a pin through a butterfly-thus at once depriving it of life, and causing it to stiffen in an ungainly and unnatural attitude. ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
Australian Author quotes by Nathaniel Hawthorne
An author who gives a manager or publisher any rights in his work except those immediately and specifically required for its publication or performance is for business purposes an imbecile. ~ George Bernard Shaw
Australian Author quotes by George Bernard Shaw
All of a sudden, there are great Japanese films, or great Italian films, or great Australian films. It's usually because there are a number of people that cross-pollinated each other. ~ Francis Ford Coppola
Australian Author quotes by Francis Ford Coppola
Ah! there is a man who justifies the wit who insisted that one ought never to know an author except through his books. ~ Marcel Proust
Australian Author quotes by Marcel Proust
My famous quote comes from my Storybook for Children Titled "Where's the Soda Tub"? Author Migdalia Torres

We are Bears, We are not suppose to be afraid of the Dark and Dangerous Woods ~ Migdalia Torres
Australian Author quotes by Migdalia Torres
Author points out in Woodrow Wilson the flipside of the positive we might call big picture vision. He observes that as college president Wilson resorted to the language of a national crusade when he met resistance in a local, academic issue. ~ David Pietrusza
Australian Author quotes by David Pietrusza
Whether you work with a small or corporate press, the important thing is to have realistic expectations in terms of sales, promotion, and the work you have to do as an author promoting your novel. ~ Joe Meno
Australian Author quotes by Joe Meno
I never met an author who admitted that people did not buy his book because it was dull. ~ W. Somerset Maugham
Australian Author quotes by W. Somerset Maugham
In 1958, Anne and I returned to Australia, where I got a very attractive research position at the Australian National University in Canberra. But soon I felt very isolated because at that time game theory was virtually unknown in Australia. ~ John Harsanyi
Australian Author quotes by John Harsanyi
Ms. Bone has weaved a captivating tale of cat and mouse that will keep the reader turning pages long into the night." Michelle Beattie, author of WHAT A PIRATE DESIRES ~ Katherine Bone
Australian Author quotes by Katherine Bone
Highly technical philosophical arguments of the sort many philosophers favor are absent here. That is because I have a prior problem to deal with. I have learned that arguments, no matter how watertight, often fall on deaf ears. I am myself the author of arguments that I consider rigorous and unanswerable but that are often not such much rebutted or even dismissed as simply ignored. ~ Daniel Dennett
Australian Author quotes by Daniel Dennett
All my life I've been involved with racial politics. I was a Freedom Rider in the South. I was the author of books on gang violence, I was a community organizer in Newark, New Jersey, and when I spoke to the Black Caucus, congressional and state, I realized they were going all the way for Hillary [Clinton] and so was the Latino caucus in Sacramento and I asked myself this question: "Do I really want to cast my vote against these people who have been central to my life and to the soul of the country?" And so I went with them. Period. ~ Tom Hayden
Australian Author quotes by Tom Hayden
Every author really wants to have letters printed in the papers. Unable to make the grade, he drops down a rung of the ladder and writes novels. ~ P.G. Wodehouse
Australian Author quotes by P.G. Wodehouse
Author. Listener. Voice
Together, an exquisite journey. ~ Xe Sands
Australian Author quotes by Xe Sands
American author Mark Twain, while viewed as liberal and non-judgmental, did at times demonstrate both these characteristics. While his reasons for detesting the Christian faith are unclear, they seem to have been profound and deep-rooted. Having lambasted the founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, in a later quote he referred to the Book of Mormon as "chloroform in print." ~ Christopher Hitchens
Australian Author quotes by Christopher Hitchens
Don't wonder why your time hasn't come yet. When you plant a seed, it always takes a while to grow. Don't be hasty. Think, plan, hustle. ~ B.A. Gabrielle
Australian Author quotes by B.A. Gabrielle
This Theresa maddened with her messages a scientist on our easily maddened planet; his anagram looking name, Sig Lemanski, had been partly derived by Van from that of Aqua's last doctor. When Leymanski's obsession turned into love, and one's sympathy got focused on his enchanting, melancholy, betrayed wife (nee Antilia Glems), our author found himself confronted with the distressful task of now stamping out in Antilia, a born brunette, all traces of Ada, thus reducing yet another character to a dummy with bleached hair.
After beaming Sig a dozen communications from her planet, Theresa flies over to him, and he, in his laboratory, has to place her on a slide under a powerful microscope in order to make out the tiny, though otherwise perfect, shape of his minikin sweetheart, a graceful microorganism extending transparent appendages toward his huge humid eye. Alas, the testibulus (test tube - never to be confused with testiculus, orchid), with Theresa swimming inside like a micromermaid, is "accidentally" thrown away by Professor Leyman's (he had trimmed his name by that time) assistant, Flora, initially an ivory-pale, dark-haired funest beauty, whom the author transformed just in time into a third bromidic dummy with a dun bun. ~ Vladimimir Nabokov
Australian Author quotes by Vladimimir Nabokov
For as 'Wright's Ninth Rule of Writing' states, every story teaches a moral, whether intended by the author or not. ~ John C. Wright
Australian Author quotes by John C. Wright
No one is as smart as all of us. -Seth Godin, author/entrepreneur ~ Jason Fried
Australian Author quotes by Jason Fried
Before becoming an Australian you will be asked to subscribe to certain values. If you have strong objections to those values, don't come to Australia. ~ Peter Costello
Australian Author quotes by Peter Costello
The author should strive to be silent in his novel. ~ Joel Blaine Kirkpatrick
Australian Author quotes by Joel Blaine Kirkpatrick
There's something to be said for an author who clearly respects a reader. ~ Jami Attenberg
Australian Author quotes by Jami Attenberg
Do not try any of this at home. The author of this book is an Internet cartoonist, not a health or safety expert. He likes it when things catch fire or explode, which means he does not have your best interests in mind. The publisher and the author disclaim responsibility for any adverse effects resulting, directly or indirectly, from information contained in this book. ~ Randall Munroe
Australian Author quotes by Randall Munroe
Sometimes in the winds of change, we find our true direction. ~ Unkown Author
Australian Author quotes by Unkown Author
I do greatly admire Australian artists. ~ Jeffrey Archer
Australian Author quotes by Jeffrey Archer
You go on with your life, because life goes on," says Isabel. "You see this in anyone who has survived a traumatic situation. My own daughter died, for example." Her only daughter, Paula Frias, died of porphyria in 1992 at the age of twenty-seven. "At first you think you can't live with this," says the author, who just turned sixty-five. "It's just too much. Then life begins to take over. One morning you wake up and you want to eat chocolate. Or walk in the woods. Or open a bottle of wine. You get back up on your feet." "When you can, right?" "You have no choice!" Isabel insists. "You cannot let the bullies keep you on the floor! I have been on my knees a thousand times, and I always get up. ~ Mark Matousek
Australian Author quotes by Mark Matousek
Author Neale Donald Walsch says, So long as you're still worried about what others think of you, you are owned by them. Only when you require no approval from outside yourself can you own yourself. ~ Oprah Winfrey
Australian Author quotes by Oprah Winfrey
When I'm on tour, I get to meet hundreds of enthusiastic readers. There is truly nothing better for an author than having someone come up to them and say, "I loved your book." For that, I'll take off my shoes at airport x-rays and sit cramped in an airline seat for hours with nothing to eat but a tiny bag of peanuts. It's totally worth it. Writing ~ D.J. MacHale
Australian Author quotes by D.J. MacHale
Hush." He kissed her forehead. "Ever since that day, all I've wanted is a second chance. Now," he pulled her body closer, wrapped both arms around her small waist, his hand resting just above the dent in her spine. "We're both a little older, a little more mature. Some of us are much more experienced - "
"And conceited."
"Experienced," he said, the laugh in his voice quiet and seductive, "and things can be so much better. ~ Peggy Jaeger
Australian Author quotes by Peggy Jaeger
If modesty and candor are necessary to an author in his judgment of his own works, no less are they in his reader. ~ Sarah Fielding
