Everybody believes in chance.

No one tells the truth to people they don't actually know, and if they do it is a horrible trait. Everyone wants something smaller, something neater than the truth.

He doesn’t know to want for more because nothing in his life has been as much as this...on that night he thinks that no one has ever had so much and only later will he know he should have asked for more.

My writing process has changed because it's harder to find uninterrupted time.

I made a startling discovery. Time spent writing = output of work. Amazing.

That was the way things worked. When you were looking for the big fight, the moment that you thought would knock everything over, nothing much happened at all.

I don't really do anything with the Internet except check my email. I have a much higher opinion of humanity because of that.
