“Scriitorul este suma cărților citite iar fiecare carte scrisă este parte din autor.”
“Scriitorul este un vrăjitor pentru că a scrie este o devenire, pentru că actul de a scrie este traversat de niște stranii deveniri care nu sunt niște deveniri-scriitor, ci niște deveniri-șobolan, deveniri-insectă, deveniri-lup etc. ... Multe sinucideri de scriitori se explică tocmai prin astfel de participări contra naturii, prin astfel de nunți contra naturii. Scriitorul este un vrăjitor pentru că trăiește animalul ca pe singura populație față de care se simte responsabil de drept. ... îi creează incredibilul sentiment al unei Naturi necunoscute – afectul. Deoarece afectul nu este un sentiment personal sau un caracter, ci efectuarea unei puteri de haită care bulversează total eul, făcându-l să nu mai fie sigur de el însuși. Cine n-a cunoscut violența acestor secvențe animale care ne smulg din umanitate fie și doar pentru o clipă, facându-ne să ronțăim pâinea asemenea unei rozătoare... (Gilles Deleuze et Félix Guattari)”

“Scripts are a house of cards and you can't just reach in the middle and pull out the middle card because the house of cards will fall down. But at a certain point you almost have to allow that house of cards to get knocked down a few times because you need to make it sturdier. How many times do you hear, "No, that doesn't make sense," or "Why would this happen?" That was a mistake. You shouldn't have those moments, because the moment you're knocked out of the story, then you're dead. And all you can go is moment to moment,or joke to joke. And that's gonna wear people out.”

“Scripture is a book about going to Heaven. It's not a book about how the heavens go.”
“Scripture is a record of the same story, told again and again, in different ways but always with the same theme, for more than three thousand years. God loves man. Man betrays God. Then God calls man back to his friendship. Sometimes that call involves some very painful suffering, and for good reason. God respects our freedom. But he will not interfere with our choices or their consequences, no matter how unpleasant. As a result, the struggle in the human heart between good and evil-- a struggle that seems burned into our chromosomes-- projects itself onto the world, to ennoble or deform it. The beauty and the barbarism we inflict on one another leave their mark on creation.”

“Scripture is profitable for training in righteousness. No one succeeds at the highest level in sports without working out. No one makes it in music without lots of practice. No one excels in scholarship without years of study. And no one makes it far in the school of holiness without hours and days and years in the word. You and I simply will not mature as quickly, minister as effectively, or live as gloriously without immersing ourselves in the Scriptures. We need the Bible if we are to be competent Christians.”
“Scripture is so counter culture. Christ was counter culture. It's not like we're supposed to be weird or anything, but as we grow closer to Christ, we won't care about the things of the world as much. As a believer, you're just going to be countercultural. That's the way its always been and it will always continue to be that way. That's why it's important for us as believers to encourage other believers that it's okay to be that way.”
