More quotes by Lee Child
I've discovered writers by reading books left in airplane seats and weird hotels.
Lee Child

Lee Child
I had a brief theater background and loved the backstage world there's more backstage work in television, so I saw a job advertised and applied, and got it. That was back in 1977, when getting jobs was easy.
Lee Child
Never forget a Favor, Never forgive a Slight!
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
Don't get it right - get it WRITTEN!
Lee Child
Practically any Western has a homesteader in trouble, and a mysterious rider shows up off the range, solves the problem over two or three days, and then rides off into the sunset.
Lee Child
The key to thrillers is vicarious pleasure.
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
