Matt Cohen Quotes

Everything about a date is weird, especially if it's a new person you don't really know.

I don't like the word 'autobiography.' I rather like the term 'autofiction.' The second you make a script out of the story of your life, it becomes fictional. Of course, the truth is never far. But the story is created out of it.
