I sold a million books because I have a lot of fans, not because people hate me.

You can't fill your emails with crap, at least not with my friends, because they're brutal. If something sucks, they'll tell you.

Calling one thing 'literature' and another 'fiction' is a way to create status where there is none.

At some point in their life, everyone thinks they should go to law school. You may in fact think you want to go to law school now.

The haters always scream the loudest.

If you don't have a job right now, and you have a computer and a basic intelligence level, I guarantee you can get a great job, paying really well, in less than three months. How? Learn to program.

The hardest lesson I've had to learn in my life is that my intelligence is inversely correlated to my humility. The more I thought I knew, the less I actually knew.
