When it comes to true humility in the face of history, nothing beats complete silence. – Lev Grossman
Growing up in the 70s and 80s, science fiction and especially fantasy had such a stigma attached to them. I felt so punished and exiled for being devoted to these things. – Lev Grossman
Becoming an author changes your attitude too. Once you see where books come from, and how theyre made, they never seem quite as sacred again. – Lev Grossman
I loved fantasy, but I particularly loved the stories in which somebody got out of where they were and into somewhere better – as in the Chronicles Of Narnia, The Wizard Of Oz, The Phantom Tollbooth, the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon on Saturday morning in the 80s. – Lev Grossman
