Justice is a jagged road.

Bad guys do what good guys dream.

It's not enough to do good. You have to be seen doing good.

Beauty, brains, and a complete psycho. My dream girl.

I write about power, that's my real subject - how you get it, what you do with it, how you abuse it. I'm equally wary of liberals and conservatives.

Nobody's reasonable when they're in love. That's the whole point of it.

In L.A., the only thing within walking distance is your car.

I'm sympathetic to the decent and hapless footsoldier into whose lap falls the unenviable duty of carrying out fubar policies.

In a contest with a weaker party it is more honorable to yield than to force concession. Magnanimity becomes the strong.

I try to put my heart out there to everybody. They don't have to be Christian. For example, I have lots of Jewish readers. I love my Jewish readers.

Reduce. Do as little as possible to get what you have to get done.

Break in the hands of God, He'll unbreak you. Break in the hands of people, you'll remain forever broken. Break to no one, your heart will remain hard.
