Lee Child
I know I'm smarter than an armadillo
Lee Child
I like food, like any other guy, but it is not the main thing in my life. I can do without it.
Lee Child
It's always sad if anybody you know has a personal problem.
Lee Child
I'm not really into gourmet food I'm the kind of guy who just stops by a place that looks good rather than heading for the restaurant of the moment.
Lee Child
What do I miss about the UK? Sadly, almost nothing. Maybe the midnight sun, in June in the north. That's all.
Lee Child
