Quotes

  • Tinahas quoted5 years ago
    When I was twenty-six, my first novel, The Temple of Gold, was published by Alfred A. Knopf. (Which is now part of Random House which is now part of R.C.A. which is just part of what’s wrong with publishing in America today which is not part of this story.)

    “Life is pain,” his mother said. “Anybody that says different is selling something.”
  • Tinahas quoted5 years ago
    “Why do you wear a mask and hood?” Fezzik asked.

    “I think everybody will in the near future” was the man in black’s reply. “They’re terribly comfortable.”
