Everybody has their story to tell.

People tell stories all the time: the stories they want told, where any story could be changed or warped this way or that. (p84)

Everybody has a story and all stories are interesting if they are told in the right tone.

Everything you look at can become a fairy tale and you can get a story from everything you touch.

All sorrows can be borne if you can put them into a story.

People see stories everywhere...We take random events and we put them together in a pattern so we can comfort ourselves with a story, no matter how much it obviously isn't true...We have to lie to ourselves to live. Otherwise, we'd go crazy.

Anyone can imagine a story. Writers imagine and get the story down on the page.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story or tell a story about them.

If the truth is worth telling, it is worth making a fool of yourself to tell.

Everybody is special. Everybody. Everybody is a hero, a lover, a fool, a villain. Everybody. Everybody has their story to tell.

A fool is excited by every word.

To be interesting, just tell your own story with uncommon honesty.

It would seem that the more irresponsible and crafty one is, the more likely one is to have a talent for storytelling.

Any fool can make something complicated. It takes a genius to make it simple.
