A best-seller is the golden touch of mediocre talent.
Cyril Connolly
A best-seller was a book which somehow sold well because it was selling well.

Jerry Pournelle
I'm not a best-seller, but through translations, I've accumulated some money.
Manuel Puig
So the books have a greater appeal to a British audience, but that hasn't stopped them making best-seller lists in places like Brazil, Japan and at least a dozen other countries.
Bernard Cornwell
You see, I used to do a certain amount of market research by going to the local drugstore and seeing what the truck drivers would put up. Now it's all just copies from the latest best-seller list and damn little of anything else.
