"How many times had those awful words - "I know what I'm doing" - been uttered throughout history as prelude to disaster?"
"The best advice on writing I've ever received was from William Zinsser: 'Be grateful for every word you can cut.'"
"E-mails are the new herpes: You never get rid of them."
"Christopher Hitchens is the greatest living essayist in the English language."
"Reading any collection of a man's quotations is like eating the ingredients that go into a stew instead of cooking them together in the pot. You eat all the carrots, then all the potatoes, then the meat. You won't go away hungry, but it's not quite satisfying. Only a biography, or autobiography, gives you the hot meal."
