Dan Brown : (3)

" I am a completely horizontal author. I can’t think unless I’m lying down, either in bed or stretched on a couch and with a cigarette and coffee handy. I’ve got to be puffing and sipping. " - Dan Brown

" The thing that’s going to make artificial intelligence so powerful is its ability to learn, and the way AI learns is to look at human culture. " - Dan Brown

" For me, a good thriller must teach me something about the real world. Thrillers like ‘Coma,’ ‘The Hunt for Red October’ and ‘The Firm’ all captivated me by providing glimpses into realms about which I knew very little – medical science, submarine technology and the law. " - Dan Brown
