quotes by Peter David

"If we can't alter the tide of events, at least we can be nearby with towels to mop up."
— Peter David (Q-In-Law)

"As for Madelyne, she continued to ply her trade. But such a life takes a fast toll on a woman. It is easy to be a remote, untouchable beauty and stay that way for many, many years. And if a stunning tapestry is hung upon a wall, it remains unsullied and a work of art. However, if one drapes it across the floor of a pub and all manner of men tread upon it with their heavy boots, it's going to be worn rather thin, and rather quickly. Such was the case with my mother."
— Peter David (Sir Apropos of Nothing)
