- I've always loved the saints very seriously. St. Francis is one of the greatest people who ever lived. But I also like them in a camp way. A lot of them were nutters like Joseph of Copertino who could levitate. The Celtic ones were always getting into scraps. These are amazing stories full of heroism, eccentricity and bloodiness. The saints gave their names to our towns, hospitals and schools, yet people have forgotten them.
- [the Young Adult novel Oblivion by Anthony Horowitz] This book is ambitious in a way that puts most adult novels to shame.
- [Anthony] Horowitz is the perfect writer. His dialogue crackles with hardboiled wit.
