More quotes by Jeffrey Archer
The worst moment of any campaign is waiting for the sun to rise on the morning of the battle

If you make a deal with a fool, don't be surprised when they act foolishly.

Jeffrey Archer
A strong man who has known power all his life may lose respect for that power. But a weak man knows the value of strength.
Jeffrey Archer
And I did wonder - because it's now three years ago since I left prison - whether there would come a time when I would forget it, or it would be in the past as anything else might be - no, it's there every day of my life.
Jeffrey Archer
No time like the present
Jeffrey Archer
I wrote a million words in the first year, and I could never have done that outside of prison.
Jeffrey Archer
Well I think after leaving prison, and having written three diaries about life in prison, it became a sort of a new challenge to write another novel, to write a new novel.
Jeffrey Archer
I learnt a lot about myself, I learnt a lot about other people and the problems they have. If I was lucky enough to live to a hundred, how I will feel about two per cent of my life being that way, I don't know.
Jeffrey Archer
But the thing I felt most strongly about, and put at the end of one of the prison diaries, was education.
