“There isn't any distinction between a reader and a writer - reading is...” — Dermot Healy Quote

“There isn't any distinction between a reader and a writer - reading is so much a part of it.”

“I write mostly in my office in the shed outside at home, but it can get very cold. I write best on the train, among people. As a writer you spend so much time away from people.”

“Truth is the lie you once told returning to haunt you”

“It's great to wave the flag - I always say we're proud to be made in America - but I think our distinction is we make it well in America.”

“If I ever took a business public, I wouldn't want to take the shares off the table. I don't want people thinking I'm doing it just to make money and then going to run for the hills. I think that's a very important distinction.”

“As a poet, I would always hear emcees come up to me and say, 'Yo, you should rap,' and I was like, 'No.' You know, the label was tough for me. I'm a poet. I was proud of that distinction between the two, not wanting to be the other.”
