Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.

The truth is you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. Life is a crazy ride and nothing is guaranteed.

I would expect illegal alien parents to take care of their children. If it means the kids go back home with them that's what happens. If it means there are legal relatives in the United States that can take care of them that can happen to. But I believe it's the parents responsibility to take care of the kids.

Crime and legal stories broadly speaking are just where my interest happens to lie.

There are half a billion people that listen to music online and the vast majority are doing so illegally. But if we bring those people over to the legal side and Spotify what is going to happen is we are going to double the music industry and that will lead to more artists creating great new music.

The people and the mindset that killed 3 000 of our fellow citizens on September 11 2001 would have killed not 3 0 but 300 000 if they could have or 3 million or 30 million. We need to do everything we can within our value systems and legal structures to make sure that doesn't happen.

Things happened there that I don't think are the finest hours for anybody whether it was a journalist the legal system or in that case of the political system who would say that was an example of when Washington worked best.

The nice thing about being a writer is that you can make magic happen without learning tricks.

I really believe that what happens one day affects the next and I think that came from that experience of learning that if I told the score inning by inning play by play it built up to its natural climax.

I wouldn't change anything. I think that it's important to let things happen and stay 'happened'. I think that's all part of the learning curve part of fate. I'm just glad that it happened.
