Additional quotes by John Steinbeck

Unless a reviewer has the courage to give you unqualified praise, I say ignore the bastard.

At the roadsides I never had a really good dinner or a really bad breakfast.

My town had grown and changed and my friend along with it. Now returning, as changed to my friend as my town was to me, I distorted his picture, muddied his memory. When I went away I had died, and so became fixed and unchangeable. My return caused only confusion and uneasiness.
