I began writing in the 4th grade. As a matter of fact, I produced a play for the entire school. It was about Leif Ericson and the discovery of America.

The main thing is that you have a good editor - one that believes in you and who will give you the feedback that you need to produce a good book.

I am a struggling writer. A middle-aged man with two little kids and I'm just trying to earn a living. So buy this book - or my kids will have to go to foster care.

I think that the mere fact that I'm doing it ought to inspire someone. In junior high school the counselor suggested that I focus on wood shop and metal shop.

In some ways I'm still recovering from the trial. My health is not as good as it ought to be. I've gone back to practicing law and it seems to have taken a toll for whatever reason.

I think that as I continue to write, my writing I hope will become more controversial and more provocative.

The events of the day inspired me to become a lawyer.

I just did something on a show on UPN called "Girlfriends" that will be on television in February. I am actually a much better actor today than I was in 1996, believe it or not.

A lot of the evidence and some of the events you see in LA Justice are loosely based on real-life cases.

I'm real bent on dialogue. I'm just a little bit crazy and when you put that along with 20 years as a criminal lawyer, it's pretty easy to come up with some interesting plots.

All I can really say is it's bloodier than hell. In this one I'm going to be much more direct and honest in my description of the actual killings and the crime scene.

You know it is a broken society when people fear each other more than they fear wild animals.

You can't defeat the darkness by keeping it caged inside of you.

We need an investigation, because we don't know what Donald Trump owes Russia. We don't know how many Russian oligarchs have invested in his business.

You can't give up on me. If you give up, then I'm going to break into a million pieces. I'm here. I'll give you everything I've got.

As war and government prove, insanity is the most contagious of diseases.

If you polish things too much, it loses the feeling

There is likewise a reward for faithful silence. [Lat., Est et fideli tuta silentio merces.]

Until mankind realizes that there is, in truth, no good, and there is, in truth, no evil-there will be no peace.

Love doesn't hurt you. A person that doesn't know how to love hurts you. Don't get it twisted.

Thy food is such As hath been belch'd on by infected lungs.
