“You always want to go out there with the best book possible, so I listen to what my editors say, and even if they don't know how to fix it, I always seem to find a way. 'Trust Your Eyes' is the best book I've written, and I don't know if I can do any better.”
“Trust is hard to come by. That's why my circle is small and tight. I'm kind of funny about making new friends.”
