I am a struggling writer. A middle-aged man with two little kids and I'm just trying to earn a living. So buy this book - or my kids will have to go to foster care.

The main thing is that you have a good editor - one that believes in you and who will give you the feedback that you need to produce a good book.

I think that the mere fact that I'm doing it ought to inspire someone. In junior high school the counselor suggested that I focus on wood shop and metal shop.

In some ways I'm still recovering from the trial. My health is not as good as it ought to be. I've gone back to practicing law and it seems to have taken a toll for whatever reason.

I think that as I continue to write, my writing I hope will become more controversial and more provocative.

The events of the day inspired me to become a lawyer.

I just did something on a show on UPN called "Girlfriends" that will be on television in February. I am actually a much better actor today than I was in 1996, believe it or not.

A lot of the evidence and some of the events you see in LA Justice are loosely based on real-life cases.

I began writing in the 4th grade. As a matter of fact, I produced a play for the entire school. It was about Leif Ericson and the discovery of America.

I'm real bent on dialogue. I'm just a little bit crazy and when you put that along with 20 years as a criminal lawyer, it's pretty easy to come up with some interesting plots.

All I can really say is it's bloodier than hell. In this one I'm going to be much more direct and honest in my description of the actual killings and the crime scene.

At what point do you no longer need other people to support the decisions you’ve made about your own reality?

If you jotted down all of my ill-thought out comments, you could write a book entitled, Guide to Getting Punched in the Throat for Boneheads-Mad Hatter in "Death of the Mad Hatter" (Coming Soon!)

Whether a thought is spoken or not, it is a real thing and has powers of reality.

The most influential people you will ever meet were once held together by the encouragement of others.

When the mind is truly at peace, wherever you are is pleasant, Whether you live in a marketplace or in a mountain hermitage.

No one's mouth is big enough to utter the whole thing.

Can you have more than one major MISSION pervading your life? NO. That would be like coming to a fork in the road and trying to go both ways by straddling it.

Openness is the first step toward recovery... addiction remains a secret because of the overwhelming shame associated with it.

Leave off asking what tomorrow will bring, and whatever days fortune will give, count them as profit.

It is one of the consolations of philosophy that the benefit of showing how to dispense with a concept does not hinge on dispensing with it.
