In the future the way that Whittaker Chambers was able to carry out forgery by typewriter will be disclosed.

I'm kind of a Luddite myself. I've got a bunch of typewriters at home. I'm a big fan of old technology.

Sometimes I think my writing sounds like I walked out of the room and left the typewriter running.

I have two vintage typewriters. One just about works and the other hasn't a hope in hell, bless it. But they're both beautiful, and they'll stay with me just as long as there's a roof over my head.

When I sit at that typewriter, I have to be frightened of what I'm trying to do. I'm frightened by my own belief that I can actually get a story down on paper.

I'm totally in control of this tiny, tiny world right there at the typewriter.

The great fun in my life has been getting up every morning and rushing to the typewriter because some new idea has hit me.

I am a dangerous man when turned loose with a typewriter.

Before I liked to write, I liked to type. I remember visiting my grandmother Adele in Ponce Inlet, Florida, when I was three years old, and she had an IBM electric typewriter.
