The Book Is My Point
"I just held up the book and I said, 'This is my point. The book is my point.' It's my artistic expression I'm trying to communicate to you. I don't know what I'm communicating, I'm making art. I want to turn you on somehow and I hope you communicate back with me. That's it. That's my point. I'm not trying to push an agenda on anybody. That's for politics. That's for essays. That's for standing on a soap box."
The Writer Is in There
"You'd have to be a literary critic or a psychiatrist to pick the writer out of his work. Every fictional story goes through this sort of blender process where you take some real experience... you know what's real or true when you put it into the blender with fiction, and then it gets all mixed up with something that didn't really happen, but there's still a little of you in there. I think the writer is in there no matter what you do. You can't really remove yourself from it."
