“When I was only eleven years old, I decided to become a writer. I told...” — Sonia Levitin Quote

“When I was only eleven years old, I decided to become a writer. I told this ambition in a letter to Laura Ingalls Wilder; the die was cast. How could I go back on my word?”

“My entire adult life has been devoted to family and career, each adding to the other in many rewarding ways. I have never felt that I had to set a pattern for my writing and teaching.”

“Through my writing, I have made new friends and continued to learn about this world of ours in all its wonder, with all its challenges.”

“I have an ounce of Lady Gaga's full-bodied ambition.”

“Ambition has developed into a passion which drives women, as well as men, to great works - and small deeds. Formerly competitors in the race for men, they are now competing in the race for social tasks and distinctions.”

“When I was 11 years old, I thought, 'All I really wanna be able to do is my own comic book,' and I'm doing it. I don't have any other real ambitions. I have nothing to conquer at all.”
