Writing an informative yet compact thriller is a lot like making maple sugar candy. You have to tap hundreds of trees - boil vats and vats of raw sap - evaporate the water - and keep boiling until you've distilled a tiny nugget that encapsulates the essence.

Great minds are always feared by lesser minds.

Nothing is hidden that will not be made known; nothing is secret that will not come to light.

But believe me, just because the human mind can't imagine something happening...doesn't mean it won't.

Remember tonight...for it's the beginning of forever. - Dante Alighieri

The media is the right arm of anarchy.

If it wasn't painfully difficult, you did it wrong!
