The computer seems easy because Apple makes the products so easy to use at home. It's the simple things, like getting the TV set up or getting the speakers to work. That drives me crazy.
The secret to getting away with lying, is believing with all your heart. That goes for lying to yourself even more so than lying to another.
The strange thing about writing is that it's so easy to write a novel. It is really easy. But it's getting there to the point where it's easy that's hard. The hard part is to get there.
I am half-Byronic, half-moronic; part-shaman, part-showman; half-Nazi, half-Liberace.
It seems, in fact, as though the second half of a man's life is made up of nothing, but the habits he has accumulated during the first half.

There's one good thing about getting in trouble: It seems like you do it in steps. It seems like you don't just end up in trouble but that you kind of ease yourself into it. It also seems like the worse the trouble is that you get into, the more steps it takes to get there. Sort of like you're getting a bunch of little warnings on the way; sort of like if you really wanted to you could turn around.
