Quotes of 1967

Quotes taken from the authors in 1967

Everything was black in the harbor, but there were still some fires burning on the ships.

I had been out there long enough. I had not seen my family for four years.

All we had aboard the ship that morning was one Annapolis graduate and three reserves.

Destroyers did not have chaplains because they were too small.

I'd get a shell, they weighed about 80 pounds I think, but when I was 19 or 20 that was nothing. I'd take a shell and a bag of powder, I'd put it in the hoist and then I would send it up to the gun.

This is how many people become artists, musicians, writers, computer programmers, record-holding athletes, scientists... by spending time alone practicing what they love.

In high school, I wanted to be an actress. Until I got to college and took some creative writing courses. Then I decided I wanted to become a novelist.

Sometimes I just want to write a really intense love scene. But I can't do that in my books for teens, or parents will complain - believe me, I've tried.

I think if I hadn't been a writer, I'd have been a teacher like my dad. He was a college professor, and one of my greatest regrets is that he passed away before I was able to prove to him that I wasn't going to be stuck working at Rax Roast Beef for the rest of my life!

Even though I loved to write, I never liked English lit. class very much. I think it ruins books when you dissect them too much. I liked my art classes best.

I am not really sure how I got interested in medicine.

For as long as I can really remember, I wanted to be a doctor.

I got a bronze medal and I can't complain about that, the only African-American to get a medal in the Winter Olympics.

I just thought that it was magical having to glide across the ice.

Being an Olympian, I always have this strong belief in excellence.

There are people who must spend huge amounts of time composing these online diatribes against me, all about how disgusting and terrible I am and how no one should ever read my books, and it's not enough for them to hate me, they can't stand the fact that ANYONE likes me!

This is the point being missed by readers who lament Liquor's lack of hot sex scenes, probably because they aren't old enough to understand that a passionate relationship could be about anything other than sex.

Some of the food in Liquor is food I've really eaten filtered through a veil of fiction.

I've tried to avoid labels, but they always find you.

In high school I was the dog, always, and I never have felt comfortable or right in my body, and part of my whole exhibitionist thing has probably been a way of testing to see whether or not I really was this repulsive creature that I felt like for so long.
