Quote

The one thing I regret is that I will never have time to read all the books I want to read.

I think some people wished I'd kept myself out of the book. But I kind of insist on it because I want the reader to share my engagement with the material, if you like, not pretend that I'm doing it completely intellectually.

I never expected my books to do even as well as they have. I still feel grateful for it, every single day.

One of the great rewards of a writer's life is that it lets you read all the books you want to without feeling guilty.

I'll read a book every now and then, but unlike most of my friends I don't always have one on the go.

I've never really been satisfied with a book. I always want it to be better.

I actually own a copy of my own book; that's how dedicated I am as an author.

I love books. I read voraciously, and I happened to have been fortunate to have been in the right place at the right time.
