“One taste of the old time sets all to rights.”

“I love writing about places I know well. Research is my least favourite thing, as it takes time from the story, but I can’t write about a place I’ve never experienced.”

“It's a night out of time and a time out of place.”

“I shut my eyes and turned them on my heart, As a man calls for wine before he fights, I asked one draught of earlier, happier sights, Ere fitly I could hope to play my part. Think first, fight afterwards, the soldier’s art: One taste of the old time sets all to rights.”

“Manhattan in the morning is a living stream of Purpose; everyone's got a place to be and a problem on their mind. That doesn't mean it's and unfriendly place -- just busy and preoccupied. Personally, I love it. I'm a social creature but there are times and places you just don't want to do more than grunt at your fellow human being.”

“Everything begins and ends at exactly the right time and place.”
