All Quotes by Carl Hiaasen

“Humor can be an incredible, lacerating and effective weapon.”
— Carl Hiaasen
“My humour has always come from anger, but I have to make sure I don't just get angry and jump on a soapbox.”

“I never laugh or smile when I am writing. When I come home for lunch after writing all morning, my wife says I look like I just came home from a funeral. This is not bragging. This is an illness.”
— Carl Hiaasen
“Good satire comes from anger. It comes from a sense of injustice, that there are wrongs in the world that need to be fixed. And what better place to get that well of venom and outrage boiling than a newsroom, because you're on the front lines.”
— Carl Hiaasen
