"Home wasn't a set house, or a single town on a map. It was wherever the people who loved you were, whenever you were together. Not a place, but a moment, and then another, building on each other like bricks to create a solid shelter that you take with you for your entire life, wherever you may go."

"Home is a desk. The amalgamation of a dream. Home is the cats, my books, and my work never done. All the lost things that may one day call to me, the faces of my children who will one day call to me. Maybe we can't draw flesh from reverie nor retrieve a dusty spur, but we can gather the dream itself and bring it back uniquely whole."

"The Glass Key is better than anything Hemingway ever wrote."
Criticism
"To say that man is a reasoning animal is a very different thing than to say that most of man's decisions are based on his rational process. That I don't believe at all."
Decision-Making
"I have a strong moral sense - by my standards."
Sense
"As a professional writer of detective stories, I string along with the ballplayers. I love a ball game."
Love
"Hemingway never grew out of adolescence. His scope and depth stayed shallow because he had no idea what women are for."
Woman
"I still can't decide which is more fun - reading or writing."
Fun
"Doyle stokes in a thousand shrewd touches with no effort at all. Wonderful."
Effort
"A character who is thought-out is not born, he or she is contrived. A born character is round, a thought-out character is flat."
Thought
"I have never regarded myself as this or that. I have been too busy being myself to bother about regarding myself."
Being
"There are two kinds of statistics, the kind you look up and the kind you make up."
