Southern political personalities, like sweet corn, travel badly. They lose flavor with every hundred yards away from the patch.

I prefer to call the most obnoxious feminists what they really are: feminazis.

Obama had the audacity to say, 'I have unequivocally prohibited the use of torture by the United States.' Ladies and gentlemen, torture in the United States has always been illegal. ↗

Often the magical elements in my books are standing in for elements of the real world, the small and magical-in-their-own-right sorts of things that we take for granted and no longer pay attention to, like the bonds of friendship that entwine our own lives with those of other people and places. ↗
