More From Joanne Harris

There's always the same amount of good luck and bad luck in the world. if one person doesn't get the bad luck, somebody else will have to get it in their place. there's always the same amount of good and evil, too. we can't eradicate evil, we can only evict it, force it to move across town. and when evil moves, some good always goes with it. but we can never alter the ratio of good to evil. all we can do is keep things stirred up so neither good nor evil solidifies. that's when things get scary. life is like a stew, you have to stir it frequently, or all the scum rises to the top.

Good Luck Extra Time Entrepreneur
What shall i compare it to, this fantastic thing i call my mind? to a waste-paper basket, to a sieve choked with sediment, or to a barrel full of floating froth and refuse? no, what it is really most like is a spider's web, insecurely hung on leaves and twigs, quivering in every wind, and sprinkled with dewdrops and dead flies. and at its centre, pondering forever the problem of existence, sits motionless the spider-like and uncanny soul.
