My mother says that after I first visited the home of the man I later married, she knew it was serious when I told her, 'Mum, he has more books than me!' So, books are at the very heart of my life.

I remember in third grade, I asked my mom, 'How does an engine work?' So my mom bought me a book.

I collect books - a lot of books.

I've been on and off motorbikes most of my life.

I read over a hundred books a year and have done so since I was fifteen years old, and every book I've read has taught me something.

It wasn't until I went to college and I got my first motorcycle that I understood the thrill of speed.

If I'm riding my bike I just replay the same scenarios over and over in my head, like I haven't had a new mental adventure since high school. So that's what I like about books on tape, so my mind can't wander anywhere.

Endless motorbike talk can and does bore me.

I feel I've got 10 books in me.

When I was in kindergarten, I entered a competition and read 52 books in a week.
