The Bush-Cheney administration had betrayed some basic American values. So there was hunger for change. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I'd say that after my father passed my writing changed, it went deeper. Most would say 'matured' but I don't think I'd use that word in relation to my progress. I think 'change' is a little more accurate. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I do genuinely believe that the political system is not linear. When it reaches a tipping point fashioned by a critical mass of opinion, the slow pace of change we're used to will no longer be the norm. I see a lot of signs every day that we're moving closer and closer to that tipping point. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
There are those people who are in your corner no matter what, you can't do any wrong, even when you do wrong. And then there are those people that no matter what you do they are going to dislike you and that's not going to change. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I had a very insightful friend who warned me back when I stopped reading scripts, 'It's easier to change directions while you're still moving.' If you stop, it's harder to get started again. I still don't think I made the wrong decision, but he was right. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
We have no reason to think that climate change is harmful if you look at the world as a whole. Most places, in fact, are better off being warmer than being colder. And historically, the really bad times for the environment and for people have been the cold periods rather than the warm periods. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
It's better to get smart than to get mad. I try not to get so insulted that I will not take advantage of an opportunity to persuade people to change their minds. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
If you don't like the way the world is, you change it. You have an obligation to change it. You just do it one step at a time. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I wrote seven Myron Bolitar novels in a row, and I never want to write a Myron book where he just solves a crime. Every one of them I want to be personal, and I want him to grow and change. The problem with that is, it makes the series limited, you can't write a series where a guy is always going through some kind of crisis. Jul 08, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
