I guess under the right circumstances, a man will do just about anything.

I'm alone and outgunned, scared and inexperienced, but I'm right.

Ten years from now I plan to be sitting here, looking out over my land. I hope I'll be writing books, but if not, I'll be on my pond fishing with my kids. I feel like the luckiest guy I know.

If you're gonna be stupid you gotta be tough.

I don't want to force my politics on my readers.

In my case, once you sell a lot of books and you are labeled a bestselling author, the serious critics are never gonna say anything nice about you.

After I'd been a lawyer for about five or six years, I started playing around with fiction.
