Love at a Tender Age Quotes

“Enough! Introductions bore the reader and the writer simultaneously, the reader anxious to get on to the meat of the book, the writer at least as anxious to turn in his manuscript, pick up his check, and go out and get drunk. I’ll end this now and permit us both to go our separate ways.”

― Lawrence Block, Love at a Tender Age
