A friend of mine who is in the publishing business knew I was writing a book, and he said, 'Have you said anything yet about the good guy? Because I know you spend so much time with the bad guys.' Because they're fun. So then you have to make the good guy fun, in order to compete. That's the challenge.

I'm not going to write for posterity. I'm going to write to make a buck.

Everyone has his own sound. I'm not going to presume how to tell anybody how to write.

I always felt, you don’t have a good time doin crime, you may as well find a job.

There are 500 million people on Facebook, but what are they saying to each other? Not much.

A man can be in two different places and he will be two different men. Maybe if you think of more places he will be more men, but two is enough for now.

I don't get in a position to be frightened. I don't do anything dangerous, and I always pay my bills.
