I still read Hemingway. I still read his short stories because they're so good. He doesn't waste any words.

I get letters. I get several a week, I think. A lot of people want a picture, a lot of people just want an autograph.

I want the reader to know what's going on. So there's never a mystery in my books.

I don't judge in my books. I don't have to have the antagonist get shot or the protagonist win. It's just how it comes out. I'm just telling a story.

Not dreams but night changes, not destiny but path changes, always keep your hopes alive, luck may or may not change, but time definitely chages.

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.

If work was a good thing, the rich would have it all and not let you do it.
