I've never taken a scalpel to a dead body.

Even when I am writing I usually take a break around lunchtime and go for a little walk to clear out my head.

I stop working at about 3 p.m. on Fridays.

I wouldn't want to donate my body for scientific study.

I'm always surprised when large numbers of people buy my books.
