More quotes by John Grisham

When witnesses concoct lies, they often miss the obvious.
John Grisham

John Grisham
In little pockets of conversation, old men were telling stories of ancient floods. Women were talking of about how much rain there'd been in other towns -- Paragould, Lepanto, and Manila.
John Grisham
Ten years from now I plan to be sitting here, looking out over my land. I hope I'll be writing books, but if not, I'll be on my pond fishing with my kids. I feel like the luckiest guy I know.
John Grisham
You need some coffee, don't you? Yes, I've only had a gallon.
John Grisham
I seriously doubt I would ever have written the first story had I not been a lawyer. I never dreamed of being a writer. I wrote only after witnessing a trial.
John Grisham
It's as if we spend our entire lives avoiding Jell-O but it is always there at the end, waiting.
John Grisham
I guess under the right circumstances, a man will do just about anything.
John Grisham
You live your life today, Not tommorow, and certainly not yesterday.
John Grisham
