All of us write wish fulfillment.
Lee Child
The best fights are the ones you don't have, a wise man once said to me.
Lee Child
The British regulatory system was revised, so that bigger profits were encouraged, which removed the option of big spending on programming. Quality just fell off a cliff, and all the old hands either left or were fired for being too expensive.
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
I was in the machine. My whole life. Then the machine coughed and spat me out. So I thought, OK, if I'm out, I'm out. All the way out. I was a little angry and it was probably an immature reaction. But I got used to it.
Lee Child
That should be your town motto. It's all I ever hear. Like: New Hampshire, Live Free or Die. It should be: Despair, You Need To Leave Now.

Lee Child
Some old guy once said that the meaning of life is that it ends.
Lee Child
Never forget a Favor, Never forgive a Slight!
Lee Child
I've discovered writers by reading books left in airplane seats and weird hotels.
Lee Child
I have a kind of old-fashioned, artisan approach.
Lee Child
For men, as they get bogged down with responsibilities, commitments, bureaucracy, it is a fantasy just to think of shedding everything literally, walking away with nothing at all, and just hitting the road.
Lee Child
Lone women shouldn't stop in the middle of nowhere for giant unkempt strangers with duct tape on their faces.
Lee Child
I was in television drama, which is a first cousin to the movies, and I trust myself to make the right decisions.
Lee Child
You do not mess with the special investigators.
Lee Child
No, I'm a man with a rule. People leave me alone, I leave them alone. If they don't, I don't.
Lee Child
Reacher said, So here's the thing Brett. Either you take your hand off my chest, or I'll take it off your wrist.
