I am alone, but never lonely. You have always books around you.

I am prolific. Any rubbish I write gets published, so books keep churning out.

I had lots of time to read [being a lawyer] what I hadn't read in my school and college days. Being a bad student I barely passed my exams and I barely bothered about books. It was sports all the time. I started reading and got involved in literature and writing. The few cases I handled gave me the material for my early short stories.

No one has invented a condom for the pen yet. My pen is still sexy.

The last to learn of gossip are the parties concerned

I am not a serious person. I don't claim any profundity for any of my writing.

But big people’s illnesses are always made to sound big. The simple shutting and opening of the royal arse-hole was made to sound as if the world was coming to an end.
