I didn't have a sweet tooth, but I liked butter, and I liked sauces, and I liked wine and curry and cheeses.

I'm mainly an airport author, and if you're trying to take your mind off the journey, you're not going to read 'King Lear.'

The most important thing to realize is that everyone is capable of telling a story.

All I ever wanted to do is to write stories that people will enjoy and feel at home with.

Money doesn't make you happy, but it gives a zone of comfort around you.
