I like having my own story remain my story.
I write almost everything, actually. Songs, poems, stories. And stories out of every genre, too.
People are moved by my story, but they're only moved by my story because of what I do on the court.
Most of the stories I have covered in 45 years have been gray stories.

What sorts of books are placed by garbage cans on garbage night in the town of Sterns? Mainly they're old class books, the kind people carry around in boxes in their basements for twenty years and then one day think: I will never again in my entire l...
Consider a small child sitting on his mother's lap while she reads him a picture book. The picture book opens to a width that effectively places the child at the center of a closed circle - that of mother's body, arms, and the picture book... That ci...
The fact is that certain themes cannot be celebrated in words, and tyranny is one of them. No one ever wrote a good book in praise of the Inquisition.
