"It's hard to be a man when you're afraid."

"Some things are just bad. Some things are just evil. Sometimes there's no explanation."

"I have a writing room. Actually, it's a one-room studio. There's even a couch. And if you think that's pretentious, go fuck yourself."

"Some things are better left unsaid. Which I generally do. Unless I'm writing a book."

"I never had a bad time in the library. I never had a bad time in a bookstore."
