“Well, Southerners like to eat well. You see, it's an event when it's done right.”

“Well it's like eating at my mom's you get what's being served and if you don't like it they still make you eat it”

“Well, it's a good life and a good world, all said and done, if you don't weaken.”

“‎"Well, It's just painful to see them without nothing to eat and at the same time no God. So let's share our food and our God.”

“It's all well and good to look back after the fact and see what we should have done, but we rarely know what path is best when we take that first step.”

“Anybody who likes writing a book is an idiot. Because it's impossible, it's like having a homework assignment every stinking day until it's done. And by the time you get it in, it's done and you're sitting there reading it, and you realize the 12,000 things you didn't do. I mean, writing isn't fun. It's never been fun. It's momentum, and once you get the momentum going, that's great, but it's a brutal experience in many, many ways. And when you're done, people tell you "Well, gee, I'm not interested." "Great, I'm glad I sat down and wrote this!”
