Some ancient oversight had nearly taken his sight, but this sad fuck was already blind inside.

Most people assume I write at night because of the kind of books I write, but I can shut out the light with my mind.

Books are readable drugs.

First time I ever put pen to paper, I had one goal _ to build something no one had ever thought of before.

I have a very addictive personality. If it isn__ women, it__ money. If it isn__ money, it__ speeding. And if it isn__ speeding, it__ women. I also like expensive video consoles where I can punch, kick, screw, shoot and drive legally all night anywhere I fucking well want to.

No matter what the good boys tell you, criminality is not a level playing field.

Reality was dawning on him and he hated reality. If you were him, so would you.

I__ proud to be a writer. I__ doing the job all my heroes did.

There are some great, subversive female writers out there. Gender should not affect anything. It does, but it shouldn't.

When I read a daring book or listen to rebellious music, I feel like I've found what freedom really means.

There are books that change our perspectives and books that change our personalities.

People who love reading get an instantly warm feeling in their bellies when they hear others describe getting comfortable with a good book.

People who don't read fiction are scared of what's inside their own heads.

Bravery isn't brandishing a sword. It's standing your moral ground and letting others try their best to take you down.

It__ much harder to twist the charitable arm of a lottery winner compared to that of a man at his lowest ebb. It sounds like the wrong way round at first, but when you really put your nut to it, people are more frightened of losing the big shit than of having fuck all to begin with and losing a bit of that.

People love books because they're searching for answers to deep, unconscious questions - and books get as close as it's possible to get.

The most lies we will ever tell in our lives will be to ourselves.

Books are like rivers, meandering this way and that, but taking us on a steady, flowing course to somewhere different.
