I Had To Write About Realistic Circumstances.

I Hope People Are Reading My Work In The Future. I Hope I Have Done More Than Frightened A Couple Of Generations. I Hope I've Inspired A Few People One Way Or Another.

Somewhere In Time Is The Story Of A Love Which Transcends Time , What Dreams May Come Is The Story Of A Love Which Transcends Death . ... I Feel That They Represent The Best Writing I Have Done In The Novel Form.

…they Think Of Suicide As A Quick Route To Oblivion, An Escape. Far From It. It Merely Alters A Person From One Form To Another. Nothing Can Destroy The Spirit. Suicide Only Precipitates A Darker Continuation Of The Same Conditions From Which Escape Was Sought. A Condition Under Circumstances So Much More Painful.

If Men Only Felt About Death As They Do About Sleep, All Terrors Would Cease. . . Men Sleep Contentedly, Assured That They Will Wake The Following Morning. They Should Feel The Same About Their Lives.

Now When I Die, I Shall Only Be Dead.
