“Humor and laughter are not necessarily the same thing. Humor permits us to see into life from a fresh and gracious perspective. We learn to take ourselves more lightly in the presence of good humor.

“A big success can be very confusing if it comes too early in your life. When you are young, you are more vulnerable to vanity. I was 36 when I wrote The Shadow of the Wind and the success of it was very gradual. If you have this kind of success straight off, I think there is a danger you can become an idiot, because you don't have a perspective. It hasn't changed me a lot. I fly first class now. But those things don't change you. If I am pretentious, I was before, I haven't changed. The only thing is, I am less anxious now.” IfsThinkingFirstsKindBigsYoungClassHavensDangerChangedWindPerspectiveShadowVulnerableVanityIdiotAnxiousConfusingPretentiousDon't ChangeFirst ClassShadow Of The WindI Haven't Changed Author:Carlos Ruiz Zafon

“I believe that we must use language. If it is used in a feminist perspective, with a feminist sensibility, language will find itself changed in a feminist manner.
