“There are a lot of people who say we need to cut the amount of money that's spent in politics. I'm not sure that I agree.

“One person reads the book, and cannot help telling a friend. That is vastly superior to any kind of advertisement, or clever magazine article. That is also the great power of the internet, where people share their opinions without the annoying screen of the media, and so much of the presence of my books has come from the Internet.
