“The secret to writing sound effects is having a room you can be alone in, trying to make the sounds yourself, and seeing what comes out. It's similar to if you're writing a character talking with their mouth full: the only way I know to transcribe that is to stuff my fist in my mouth and write down what sounds I make when I try to talk.” IfsKnowsWayWritingTryingBookCharacterStuffSoundRoomsSecretTalkingSeeingEffectsMouthsComicComic BookFistsSound Effects Author:Ryan North
“I appreciate your giving my book -- and in no small way, me -- a chance. To thank you, I really wanted to acknowledge all of you in the book. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough room for each name. So I've put in a code name that stands for all of you reading this book. The name is 'Mom.' It will be our little secret. So when you see 'Mom' in the acknowledgments, you'll know I'm really talking about you. And don't let my mother try to tell you otherwise.” KnowsWayGivingTryingLittlesBookEnoughWantedMotherReadingNamesChanceRoomsSecretTalkingMomAppreciateCodeAcknowledgeAcknowledgmentAppreciate You Author:Ellen DeGeneres
“Of all the art forms, poetry is the most economical. It is the one which is the most secret, which requires the least physical labor, the least material, and the one which can be done between shifts, in the hospital pantry, on the subway, and on scraps of surplus paper. ... poetry has been the major voice of poor, working class, and Colored women. A room of one's own may be a necessity for writing prose, but so are reams of paper, a typewriter, and plenty of time.” WritingMayHas BeensArtDoneFormVoicePoorRoomsSecretClassPovertyMaterialsPaperMajorsLaborPlentyProsePoetry IsHospitalsWorking ClassSubwayScrapTypewritersSurplusPantry Author:Audre Lorde
“In all honesty, if somebody asked me the secret of auditioning for Americans, I don't know. Often, I do what's called self-taping for America.

“When I was a kid my primary goal in life was to find a book that was alive. Not alive in the human sense, but like a thing that would send me to a place not otherwise accessible on Earth. This book should have hidden words encrypted beneath the printed ones, so that if I worked hard enough and discovered the code I would somehow end up inside the book, or the book would take on a body and consume me, revealing a secret set of rooms behind the wall in my bedroom, for instance, inside which anything could be.” IfsShouldHumansBookEndsHardEnoughBodyKidsEarthGoalRoomsSecretBehindsAliveWallShould HaveInstancePrimariesCodeBedroomRevealingPrintedLife Goal Author:Blake Butler

“Science is a match that man has just got alight. He thought he was in a room - in moments of devotion, a temple - and that his light would be reflected from and display walls inscribed with wonderful secrets and pillars carved with philosophical systems wrought into harmony. It is a curious sensation, now that the preliminary splutter is over and the flame burns up clear, to see his hands and just a glimpse of himself and the patch he stands on visible, and around him, in place of all that human comfort and beauty he anticipated - darkness still.” MenHumansStillsMomentsHandsLightWould BeRoomsSecretDarknessClearWonderfulWallComfortHarmonyPhilosophicalDevotionCuriousFlamesVisibleTemplesSensationsDisplayGlimpsePatchesPillars Book:The Island of Doctor Moreau Source: The Island of Doctor Moreau
“There is a struggle inside you between these two parts. It's as if at times your heart becomes a battlefield! The secret part, full of light, seems so small and weak in the face of the discouraging and morbid part, which seems enormous and overwhelming. However, if you light a small candle in a dark room, everything is lit up. It is a matter of trusting in this little light in the deepest part of your being which can gradually chase away the darkness.” IfsHeartLittlesTwoMatterLightSeemsFacesDarkRoomsSecretDarknessStruggleWeakEnormousOverwhelmingCandleLitDiscouragingBattlefieldsMorbidDark Room Author:Jean Vanier
