“I'm slow by everybody's standards. But not by mine.” — Katherine Dunn Quote

“I'm slow by everybody's standards. But not by mine.”

“In boxing, they say it's the punch you don't see coming that knocks you out. In the wider world, the reality we ignore or deny is the one that weakens our most impassioned efforts toward improvement.”

“It took seventeen years to get from my second novel, 'Truck,' to my third, 'Geek Love.'”

“It may sound funny to others, but there is a sense of freedom when I am able to live on my own, and as per my own set standards.”

“I have got lots of confidence in my own ability and I know I have got to keep up my standards.”

“Unequivocally, individual human beings who live together will always have different standards of what a 'clean house' looks like.”
