Quote by John Grisham

Nobody wants to read about the honest lawyer down the street who does real estate loans and wills. If you want to sell books, you have to write about the interesting lawyers - the guys who steal all the money and take off. That's the fun stuff.


Nobody wants to read about the honest lawyer down the street

Summary

This quote implies that when it comes to capturing readers' attention and selling books, stories about scandalous or deceitful lawyers are more captivating than those about honest and ordinary lawyers engaged in legal activities. It suggests that the intrigue and excitement surrounding lawyers who engage in illicit activities draw more interest from people, as opposed to focusing on the mundane and ethical side of the legal profession.
