“As the Occupy Movement demonstrated, it's tough to change anything whe...” — Marcus Sakey Quote

As the Occupy Movement demonstrated, it's tough to change anything when you're talking about everything.

If you pick up a copy of 'A Better World,' you'll lose those last five pounds while saving a baby seal under a rainbow. I kid. It'll be ten pounds.

For me, the best moments in storytelling are the ones where I feel I'm discovering something.

I've always been fascinated by mythology or, in modern parlance, by X-Men or vampires.

Honestly, I don't focus on what my writing is called. I don't mean to sound artsy and pretentious, I just really can't think of things in that way. For me, the point is telling a story that keeps people up past bedtime, while hopefully exploring ideas that resonate.

I have been unsure, from the start, what the Occupy movement was all about, although I did suspect that it was just fatuous, anti-enterprise, left-wingery.

Quite early on, and certainly since I started writing, I found that philosophical questions occupied me more than any other kind. I hadn't really thought of them as being philosophical questions, but one rapidly comes to an understanding that philosophy's only really about two questions: 'What is true?' and 'What is good?'

I hate being on my own, I rely on my friends and my family and my job to keep me occupied and to make me feel comforted and wanted and needed and all that stuff.

Easy is to occupy a place in a telephone book. Difficult is to occupy someone's heart; know that you're really loved.
