I carry the seeds of death within me and plant them wherever I linger long enough to love.

When you walk on the face of a world, then forgiveness comes.

There's a reason why every human society has fiction. It teaches us how to be 'good,' to behave in a way that is for the benefit of the whole community.

The lives of all people flow through time, and, regardless of how brutal one moment may be, how filled with grief or pain or fear, time flows through all lives equally.

Writer's block is my unconscio...

Writer's block is my unconscious mind telling me that something I've just written is either unbelievable or unimportant to me, and I solve it by going back and reinventing some part of what I've already written so that when I write it again, it is believable and interesting to me. Then I can go on. Writer's block is never solved by forcing oneself to 'write through it,Ђќ because you haven't solved the problem that caused your unconscious mind to rebel against the story, so it still won't work Ђ' for you

That is the earth, he thought....

That is the earth, he thought. Not a globe thousands of kilometers around, but a forest with a shining lake, a house hidden at the crest of a hill, high in the trees, a grassy slope leading upwards from the water, fish leaping and birds strafing to take the bugs that lived at the border between water and sky. Earth was the constant noise of crickets, and winds, and birds

Once you duct-tape a Ziploc bag to a man's chest, there's no going back.

Good people can't out-think evil, cause evil thinks of things good folks can't think of.

Surely you're not saying that ...

Surely you're not saying that God had to choose between long life and intelligence for human beings! It's there in your own Bible, Carlotta. Two trees - knowledge and life. You eat of the tree of knowledge and you will surely die. You eat of the tree of life and you remain a child in the garden forever, undying.

Your work is first, learning is first, winning is everything because without it there is nothing.

Orson Scott Card 529 quotes

I merely observe that all livi...

I merely observe that all living things are manipulated. As long as there is a will, it is bent and twisted constantly. Only the dead are allowed the luxury of freedom, and then only because they want nothing, and therefore can't be thwarted.

The only people who think children are carefree are the ones who've forgotten their own childhood.

It's simple. Nothing exists except in relation to something else.

Science isn't done by consensus. It's done by rigorous testing.

Of course, I also hear from critics who detest what I do, and while sometimes I feel rather proud of having made various the loathsome people or groups angry, at other times I wonder why I put up with such grief.

I fell into playwriting accidentally, took some classes in it, and also took creative writing classes, but I really didn't expect it to be a career because I didn't believe there was a way to make money as a playwright without being lucky and I didn't feel particularly lucky.

The priests say that God created our souls, and that just puts us under the control of another puppeteer. If God created our will, then he's responsible for every choice we make.
