“In precious opals there might be a dash of red here, a seductive swirl of blue there, and in the center, perhaps, a flirtatious glance of green. But each stone flickers with a unique fire and a good opal is one with an opinion of its own.” MightOpinionFireUniqueRedStonesBlueGreenColourGlancesSeductiveFlickerSwirlsOpalFlirtatious Book:Jewels: A Secret History Source: Jewels: A Secret History
“In brief, worldbuilding is different than setting in my opinion. Setting is a room. A backdrop. It's scenery. But without good worldbuilding, you can't have realistic feeling scenery. You can't have cool, unique backdrops for your story.” DifferentStoriesFeelingsRoomsOpinionUniqueSettingSettingsRealisticSceneryBackdrop Author:Patrick Rothfuss
“Ultimately, we want to provide people with a unique experience, and an unexpected one as well. We'd like people to leave the theater having questions, being intrigued, wanting to know more, and forming their own opinions about the characters and the world we created.

“People (a group that in my opinion has always attracted an undue amount of attention) have often been likened to snowflakes. This analogy is meant to suggest that each is unique - no two alike. This is quite patently not the case. People, even at the current rate of inflation - in fact, people especially at the current rate of inflation - are quite simply a dime a dozen. And, I hasten to add, their only similarity to snowflakes resides in their invariably and lamentable tendency to turn, after a few warm days, to slush.” PeopleTwoFactsTurnsAttentionOpinionCasesGroupsAmountUniqueAddRateCurrentsWarmTendenciesDozenInflationSimilarityAnalogiesDimesSnowflakeSlush Book:The Fran Lebowitz Reader Source: The Fran Lebowitz Reader
