Isabel Allende
I confess that I am a messy, disorganized and impatient reader: if the book doesn't grab me in the first 40 pages, I abandon it. I have piles of half-read books waiting for me to get acute hepatitis or some other serious condition that would force me to rest so that I could read more.

Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won...It feels bad to feel like you're not wanted...If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch...Women are like teabags...The lips of the wise are as the doors of a cabinet...Man's great misfortune is that he has no organ...
