"And I grew up on a steady diet of science fiction, especially apocalyptic and postapocalyptic fiction." ― Justin Cronin Topic(s): Diet More From Justin Cronin "I was very much a child of the Cold War." "One of the things you get to do as a writer is that you get to learn new stuff all the time, and I hope that I’m a better writer when I’m 70 than I was when I was 30. That’s one of the great things about a literary career." "I grew up during the Cold War, when everything seemed very tenuous. For many years, right up until the fall of the Berlin Wall, I had vivid nightmares of nuclear apocalypse." More In Diet "I started dieting. I dieted, dieted, dieted and tried all the diets and I would lose and then I would go back to normal eating and would put it on and then some."― Suzanne Somers "My goal? To test out every diet and exercise regimen on planet earth and figure out which work best. I sweated, I cooked, I learned to pole dance. In the end, I lost weight, lowered my cholesterol and doubled my energy level. I feel better than I ever have."― A. J. Jacobs "If you believe in your heart that you are right, you must fight with all your might to do it your way. Only dead fish swim with the stream all the time."― Linda Ellerbee
