It's obvious, but perhaps worth saying, that happiness has virtually nothing to do with the state of your intellect.

There is virtually nothing I wouldn't be willing to do, to try and make sure that children have a fair shake in life.

Plot and character are virtually the same thing.

It's your body and your life and you have an absolute right to do with it as you choose.

I'm a liberal where children are concerned, a libertarian where adults are concerned - and thinking very seriously about running for the House of Representatives, for whatever that's worth.

An attempt to write nothing but characterization will soon bog down; I for one don't want to have somebody tell me about someone else.
