Quotes with DECEPTIVELY (3)
People often ask me why my style is so simple. It is, in fact, deceptively simple, for no two sentences are alike. It is clarity that I am striving to attain, not simplicity.

And it is changeable: just when you think you see a pattern, perspective shifts, an alternate version is proffered, a long-forgotten memory resurfaces.
I wonder if anyone but me realizes what goes on in that head back of your deceptively sweet face.
