“I often give this metaphor where I say that writing short fiction is like surfing, while writing a novel is like navigating with your car. So when you navigate with your car, you want to get somewhere. When you surf, you don't want to get somewhere, you just don't want to fall off your board.” WantGivingWritingFallFictionNovelCarMetaphorBoardsSurfingSurfNavigateWriting Short Author:Etgar Keret
“Rarely a producer gives me music and I write to it. I think that's too easy. Most of the time for me, it's on an elevator or in my car listening to absolutely nothing.

“The greatest thing about form and convention is that it saves you from having to reinvent the wheel. Now, whether you mount the wheel to a horse carriage or a Formula One racing car, make it plain or give it spinning rims, those are all craft decisions. But the fact of the wheel remains: it will turn if you set it down. That's what I mean about the beauty of the gifts genre can offer.” IfsGivingMeanFactsFormTurnsDecisionCarOffersHorseRemainsCraftsGenreWheelsFormulasRacingConventionsSpinningCarriagesRace CarRimsFormula One Author:Chris Abani

“You simply cannot give to the world all that you have to give to the world if you do not remain true to your own "selfish" desires. You have a unique set of precious values that can only be fulfilled by pursuing what drives you the most: your passions and dreams. Could Thomas Edison have tended to the downtrodden as Mother Teresa did? Could Albert Einstein have preached salvation as Martin Luther King Jr. did? Could Abraham Lincoln have built cars like Henry Ford? Always, the masses benefit from the individuals who insist on marching to the beat of their own drummer.” IfsWorldGivingDreamMotherDesireValuesPassionIndividualCarKingsBenefitsMassUniqueBeatsBuiltSalvationSelfishFulfilledFollow Your DreamsLutherAbrahamDrummerTeresaDowntroddenSelfish Desire Book:Choose Them Wisely: Thoughts Become Things!

“The reality is, cellphones have to be used safely. They are today like cars and trucks - we can't live without them, but we certainly wouldn't give a car or truck to a toddler to drive.

“Somebody comes to your house. You know they're coming, so it's not a surprise. And they give you an envelope that has your scenes in it. And they sit in the car outside for a half an hour while you read your scenes, then they ring your doorbell and you give your scenes back. Then you shoot the movie a few weeks later or something. The next time you see your scenes is the night before you start shooting.
