Es ist eine tröstliche Vorstellung, dass der Tod ein sehr winziges Loch ist, und Sie müssen sich sehr klein machen, um durchzukommen. Man muss sich natürlich leichter machen, und ein Rucksack voller Ziegelsteine oder ein Kaminsims voller Trophäen wird sicherlich aufgegeben werden müssen - je früher, desto besser, sage ich.

You would give up your career if you lost your voice for good, or if the impresarios stopped calling, or the audiences stopped coming. But as long as those things are there, I don't plan to stop. There is nothing that makes me feel better than to be with my public.

'Madden' is the closest thing to actually being on the field yourself. It's so ridiculously realistic. Before I play it, I honestly didn't understand. 'What's all the hype? It's a video game'. Then I sat down and played it, and you feel like you're on the field.

You have to have talent to some extent - I certainly hope I have talent - but you have to have luck as well. Once you get that first shot, that will get you noticed for the rest of your books and that will give the rest of your books a better chance.
