Alice Hoffman quotes
" After a while, the characters I'm writing begin to feel real to me. That's when I know I'm heading in the right direction. "

Alice Hoffman
" After I wrote the book and had given it its title, it was interesting to discover that in France, fairy tales were called 'cahiers bleu', which means 'blue notebooks.' "

Alice Hoffman
" All the characters in my books are imagined, but all have a bit of who I am in them - much like the characters in your dreams are all formed by who you are. "

Alice Hoffman
" Among men and women, those in love do not always announce themselves with declarations and vows. But they are the ones who weep when you're gone. Who miss you every single night, especially when the sky is so deep and beautiful, and the ground so very cold. "

Alice Hoffman
" Any institution becomes a community - whether it's a high school or a boarding school or a publishing company or a small town where everybody knows certain things about people. "

Alice Hoffman
" Anyway, the sort of love that will not wait is probably best to pass by. "

Alice Hoffman
" Even in times when it's difficult to figure out, how do you go forward, art - and books - always help. "

Alice Hoffman
" Every time I finish a book, I forget everything I learned writing it - the information just disappears out of my head. "

Alice Hoffman
" Everyone is interrelated and I think it's interesting to see how people react when they are thrown together. And I think there are still small towns that are like this. "

Alice Hoffman
" Hawthorne has given us a tradition that some people refer to as Yankee Magic Realism, and I do think there is a certain quality to the landscape that definitely leads into the dark woods. "

Alice Hoffman
" I also have the feeling that twelve or thirteen-year-old kids have such vision when they are looking at things and can see the truth of such situations better than adults can. "

Alice Hoffman
" I also like the whole idea of fairy tales and folk tales being a woman's domain, considered a lesser domain at the time they were told. "

Alice Hoffman
" I always felt and still feel that fairy tales have an emotional truth that is so deep that there are few things that really rival them. "

Alice Hoffman
" I always quit at three when my kids come home from school so I feel pretty spoiled. "

Alice Hoffman
" I am writing a collection of modern fairy tales at the moment! I'm also working on a novel based on a classic fairy tale - a very controversial one. "
