Spencer Quinn Revealed

Q. What is your motto or maxim? A. Still time to figure that out. I'll have it posted on my tombstone. Q. What are your 5 favorite songs? A. If You Were Mine (Billie Holiday), Black and Blue (Louis Armstrong), Recondita Armonia (Jussi Bjoerling), He Stopped Loving Her Today (George Jones), Milky White Way (Elvis Presley) Q. What’s your best quality? A. Probably for others to say, but maybe it's that I don't often lose my temper. On the other hand, loss of temper can be a useful tool, as I'm sure we've all seen, and therefore I'm somewhat handicapped. Q. If you could meet any historical character, who would it be and what would you say to him or her? A. Jesus. I'd like to know if the events of the past 2000 years have caused him to change his mind about anything. Q. How would you describe perfect happiness? A. I'll know it when I get there. I hope.
