A Quote by Alejandro Jodorowsky

Books are finished. — © Alejandro Jodorowsky
Books are finished.
I used to think that when I finished a book, I was finished with it. But it's like a wonderful Hydra. Every time a head disappears, more heads appear, so I will be writing for the rest of my life. The more books I write, the more books I find that I still have to write about. I use it like an inspiration, and that's wonderful.
I finished all the math books by third grade and most of the reading books. So I was considered disruptive.
Going off the grid is always good for me. It's the way that I've started books and finished books and gotten myself out of deadline dooms and things.
The moment when the finished book or, better yet, a tightly packed carton of finished books arrives on my doorstep is the moment of truth, of culmination; its bliss lasts as much as five minutes, until the first typographical error or production flaw is noticed.
I'd finished the first two [books] and they were going to to be published, and [editor] said, "We need you to write a summary that will drive people to these books." And it took forever. I couldn't think of a thing to say. I looked at the back of other children's books that were full of giddy praise and corny rhetorical questions, you know, "Will she have a better time at summer camp than she thinks?" "How will she escape from the troll's dungeon?" All these terrible, terrible summaries of books, and I just couldn't.
Books are never finished, They are merely abandoned.
I finished 1,100 books in six weeks.
I've finished fights from my feet, I've finished fights with my ground-and-pound, and I've finished fights from my back with a submission, from top with submission. You name it, and I've finished a fight that way.
Books and movies are never finished, only surrendered.
I suffer from the disease of writing books and being ashamed of them when they are finished.
I'm wondering what to read next." Matilda said. "I've finished all the children's books.
Well, now that he's finished one building, he'll go write four books about it.
I'm famously secretive about my work. Nobody reads my books till they're finished.
On the whole, I don't like reading long books. I'm not a fan of 'Ulysses.' And I haven't quite finished 'War and Peace.'
What we become depends on what we read after all of the professors have finished with us. The greatest university of all is a collection of books.
