I'm Not Really A Mass Market Writer.

I'm Basically An Upper West Side Jewish Writer.

If You're A Writer, You're Always Working.

One Is What One Has The Nerve To Pretend To Be.

The Printing Presses Of The State Treasuries Cranked Out Reams Of Paper Currency- Showing Wise Kinds And Blissful Martyrs- While Bankers Wept And Peasants Starved.

It Takes Me Three Months Of Research And Nine Months Of Work To Produce A Book. When I Start Writing, I Do Two Pages A Day; If I'm Gonna Do 320, That's 160 Days.
