• I am relieved that, in my own teaching, I don't have to moderate between high stake teaching and education for the virtues. If I did, I would give students the tools to take the tests but not spend an inordinate amount of time on test prep nor on 'teaching to the test.' If the students, or their parents, want drill in testing, they'd have to go elsewhere. As a professional, my most important obligation is to teach the topic, skills, and methods in ways that I feel are intellectually legitimate.

• Fiction stymies me with its possibility. I can't see the bottom and I freeze, cling to the side, or just choke. In nonfiction, particularly that which takes personal narrative for its primary topic, I have a finite space and a finite amount of material. I can't fabricate material, I can only shape and burrow into it.

• I work in a business environment forty hours a week, and writing is what I do to unwind. It allows me to transport myself to a happy place where I can indulge my hopes, beliefs, aspirations and fantasies. It also allows me to live and breathe a topic for eighteen months while I'm researching and writing.

• He afirmado que la evasión es una de las principales funciones de los cuentos de hadas y, puesto que no los desapruebo, es evidente que no acepto el tono de desprecio o lástima con el que ahora se utiliza tan a menudo la palabra "evasión". ¿Por qué habría de despreciarse a un hombre que, encontrándose en prisión, intenta salir y volver a casa? ¿O, si no puede hacerlo, piensa y habla de otros temas que no sean los carceleros y los muros de la prisión?
