The fact is, the media never gets off the interstate unless there's a major explosion.

I've never felt influenced by Ernest Hemingway though I suppose there is something inevitable there.

The only advice I can give to aspiring writers is don't do it unless you're willing to give your whole life to it. Red wine and garlic also helps.

I'm outdoors a lot, so I get dark. Guess who gets stopped? I've been pulled over, and they ask, 'Where are you from?' I say, 'Montana.' They say, 'Are you sure? And I say, 'I'm reasonably sure I'm from Montana, but you know, this is a dream life.' You start on this shtick with them and it's fun.

I don't feel I could've played major league baseball.

Back off or the lizard gets it!
