I love getting fan mail. Often, as a writer, you never know what your readers think of a book… you get critical reviews and sales figures, but none of that is the same as knowing you’ve made a person stay up all night reading, or helped them have a good cry, or really touched their life.
Jodi Picoult

Srila Prabhupada has already had an amazing effect on the world. There’s no way of measuring it.

Jimmy Fallon
I used to stay up all night playing ‘Resident Evil 2,’ and it wouldn’t stop until the sun came up. Then I’d walk outside at dawn’s first light, looking at the empty streets of London, and it was like life imitating art. It felt like I’d stepped into an actual zombie apocalypse.
Edgar Wright
If you are a student you should always get a good nights sleep unless you have come to the good part of your book, and then you should stay up all night and let your schoolwork fall by the wayside, a phrase which means ‘flunk’.
Daniel Handler
The first song I sent over was Up All Night. People say that sounds like Angels on a Blink record. Well, no – that’s just me!
Tom DeLonge
Sitting up all night would be pointless if somebody you loved wasn’t sitting up with you, picking out music to play and helping you kill the bourbon. Walking by yourself in the rain is for college kids who think loneliness makes poets.
Peter S. Beagle
