I'm not interested in cutting the feet off my characters or stretching them to make them fit my certain political view. Margaret Atwood
If I could have had everything exactly the way I wanted, this is how I would have written it down. Win all my fights in the first round, then go to the UFC and headline a show, and have it as a pay-per-view and at home. People's dreams don't come true like that. Ronda Rousey
In the closing years of the nineteenth century, African-American historians began to look at their people's history from their vantage point and their point of view. John Henrik Clarke
It's my view that any conservative who loves his country has to be extremely concerned. Vincent Bugliosi

People always think women meet us in the hotel lobby, but it's the opposite. The majority of the time, you go out to eat with your teammates, then rest for the next day's game. It's not a vacation - most guys view the road as a business trip.Kevin Durant
People ask me if I ever thought of writing a children's book. I say, 'If I had a serious brain injury I might well write a children's book', but otherwise the idea of being conscious of who you're directing the story to is anathema to me, because, in my view, fiction is freedom and any restraints on that are intolerable.

That literary-popular distinction is, in my view, vastly overstated. At the far poles there are clearly books that are purely commercial and purely literary, written for audiences that want to see the same thing enacted over and over and over again.
