Quote of the Day
My mother read everything I wrote, but she always complained that there were too many explosions. I gave her chapters of The Wonderful World of Pluto as I was writing it, and at some point she said, “Someone gets blown up on every page!” So my conscience pricked me and I wrote a chapter at the end of the book—which was somewhat insincere—in which the main character wanders around, feeling glad that there’s “no more violence.”
—Kenneth Lonergan, to Esopus
