It's hard not to like Asimov; he's a really likable guy.

He's a likable guy, a personable guy

My feelings towards Scott Card are pretty mixed. Politically, he and I are pretty far apart.

He's just a good guy. Easy to get along with, very likable, and he played hard and played the game right. It was easy to respect what he did on the field and very easy to like him in the clubhouse. Not many guys can combine the two. He was one of the best at it.

Novels for me are how I find out what's going on in my own head. And so that's a really useful and indeed critical thing to do when you do as many of these other things as I do.

He was very likable and tried hard at everything he did.
