Emily Rodda Quotes 1617204

The light that gleams at their back door
Will guide you from the lonely shore,
But dangers seek you as you go,
One from above, one from below.
One hides by night, one hides by day,
And hard and stony is your way. — Emily Rodda

Seven hearts the journey make.
Seven ways the hearts will break.

When sleep is death, and hope is gone.

And see the answer white and clear,
Then throw away all thoughts of home,
For only then your quest is done. — Emily Rodda

I don't want to write things that people don't want to read. I would have no pleasure in producing something that sold 600 copies but that was considered very wonderful. I would prefer to sell 20,000 copies because the readers loved it. When I write books I don't actually think about the market in that way. I just tell myself the story. I don't think I'm talking to a 10-year-old boy or a six-year-old girl. I just write on the level the story seems to call for. — Emily Rodda

And slowly round the old wheel turns.

And when at last its face it shows,
Then past and present tales will meet--
The evil circle is complete... — Emily Rodda
