If I Was To Listen And Pay

If I Listened To My Critics, I Would Still Be At Home Under My Bed Right Now.

I Don't Really Want To Have Any Part Of Getting Guilty People Off.

Hailey [as A Character] Was Born When I Left The Courtroom And Moved To New York For Cochran And Grace, My Tv Show With Johnnie Cochran. I Moved With Two Boxes Of Clothes, A Curling Iron, And $300; I Didn't Know A Soul In The City, So I Would Come Home At Night And I'd Be All Alone And Just Write. I Missed The Courtroom And [what Led Me To The Courtroom] So Much I Wrote About It. After My Fiancé Keith's Murder, I Had Never Thought I Would Have Children - I Thought That It Was Not God's Plan For Me To Have A Family.

I Would Wipe My Tears, And Walk Out Of The Stall And The Bathroom, And March Myself Back Into That Courtroom Because The Only Way That I Could Deal With Keith's [ Griffin] Murder Was To Feel Like I Was Doing Something About It. In Retrospect, What Did I Do? I Know That I Put A Lot Of Bad Guys In Jail And If I Kept Them Off The Street One Day More, That May Have Been One Less Crime Victim.

After I Lost My Fiance, It Seemed Like It Would Be Better To Always Be Alone Than To Risk Being Hurt Again.
