Love And Despair Go Hand

I Thought I Was Writing For A Fairly Hip, Intelligent Crowd; I Just Thought There Were More Of Them Out There. But They're Not. They're Not Out There Waiting. They're Not Gonna Use Their Intelligence On Your Book.

A Writers Job Is To Destroy And Then To Build The Thing Back Up Again By A Chosen Means.

I Always Intended To Be Light And Open. I Misjudged The American Audience.

I Never Pulled A Loaded Pistol On Anybody, But It Got Around That I Did. It Got Turned Into Lore. It's A Myth. There's So Much Bad Gun Stuff.

I Wouldn't Buy Somebody's Album On A Dare If They Called Him A Musician's Musician. I Don't Write To Be A Writer's Writer. I Don't Want To Be Like The Little-magazine Writer.
