“Dear God, please don't close my eyes to realities. I'd rather stand aware and trembling before each betrayal, face--diminished and disappointed--every lie.

“Along with uncommon sensitivity, there is a detachment that is characteristic in a real writer. A voyeur at the door. You must understand that everything is fair game for their clinical scrutiny, their razor-sharp
intuitiveness, their merciless interpretation--or their fanciful recreation.”

“Every personal story, every secret, every vulnerability you share with someone is a potential weapon that you're placing in that person's hand.”

“Dear God, please don't grant me one of those magic mirrors. The ones that make a person see only what they want to believe about themselves--not as others actually see them. I'd rather be aware of myself, including the flaws, and keep it real. Amen.”
