More From Dodie Smith

I sit in the sink (while applying makeup). i do. i've broken more sinks...i sit in the sink, on top of a big square sink in my bathroom with my feet in the basin so i'm very close to the mirror with the good light, and i'm very comfortable. i also manage to put my two phones in the sink so that nothing, but nothing, could get me out of there.
Makeup Squares Mirrors
My wife and i never agree on the dishtowels. it's a matter of terms. she asks me not to put the dishtowel in the sink. so i drape it over the sink, but not in the sink. if that's our biggest problem, i think we're in good shape.

Love is not all: it is not meat nor drink nor slumber nor a roof against the rain; nor yet a floating spar to men that sink and rise and sink and rise and sink again; love can not fill the thickened lung with breath, nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone; yet many a man is making friends with death even as i speak, for lack of love alone.
Life Rain Love Is
I was always a person on my mother's hip in the kitchen. my mom really wanted her kids at her side as much as possible, and she worked in restaurants for over fifty years. and my grandfather had ten children, and he grew and prepared most of the food. my grandmother, on my mother's side, was the family seamstress and the baker. so my mom, the eldest child, was always in the kitchen with my grandpa and i was always in the production and restaurant kitchens and our own kitchen with my mom. and it's just something that has always spoken to me.

The secret to writing is just to write. write every day. never stop writing. write on every surface you see; write on people on the street. when the cops come to arrest you, write on the cops. write on the police car. write on the judge. i'm in jail forever now, and the prison cell walls are completely covered with my writing, and i keep writing on the writing i wrote. that's my method.
Wall Writing Cells
Take out another notebook, pick up another pen, and just write, just write, just write. in the middle of the world, make one positive step. in the center of chaos, make one definitive act. just write. say yes, stay alive, be awake. just write. just write. just write.

You ask me if i keep a notebook to record my great ideas. i've only ever had one.
Love Life Notebook
When i'm filling notebooks i'm trying to pin down what i'm really interested in and to find those details that are so hard to come by, details that i can look at and believe are right on the mark. things which bring a novel to life. they can take a while to come.

I love auditioning. since “the notebook” and “wedding crashers,” i don’t have to audition anymore, and i miss it. you get to show your interpretation of the character. i get nervous when i don’t audition. what if they hate what i want to do?
Notebook Hate Character
..there she is, and i am watching her through plexiglass, and she looks like margo roth spiegelman, this girl i have known since i was two–this girl who was an idea that i loved. and it is only now, when she closes her notebook and places it inside a backpack next to her and then stands up and walks toward us, that i realize that the idea is not only wrong by dangerous. what a treacherous thing it is to believe that a person is more than a person.
