Those fellows, they're always crying over killers. Never a thought for the victims.

Good luck and believe me, dearest Doc - it's better to look at the sky than live there. Such an empty place; so vague. Just a country where the thunder goes and things disappear.

I don't use a typewriter, I write longhand, with a pencil. Essentially I'm a horizontal writer. I think better when I'm lying down.

Life is a moderately good play with a badly written third act.

I am always drawn back to places where I have lived, the houses and their neighborhoods.

I don't mean I'd mind being rich and famous. That's very much on my schedule and someday I'll try to get around to it.

That isn't writing at all, it's typing.
