I know that a lot of people like to say "formula." I think that as soon as you start to have a formula imputed to your work, you're in danger of becoming formulaic. So the one formula I have as a rule is falling in love with the material.

Copy Quote Text

When people say formula, there's almost a little bit of a negative construct to it. It's nice when people describe someone as a "hit factory," but it makes it sound like you're just making baked beans or something.

Jeff Wachtel

Really, the idea of creating consistent quality of a show is complicated. It's not like making refrigerators. There's something very specific to each one of the shows, each episode of each show and that involves a really great team doing great work.

Jeff Wachtel

when you fall in love, you must fall in love with a man the way he is now, because marriage won't change anything, except maybe your tax deduction.

Kathie Lee Gifford Talk Show Host

When I was a young man, I didn't think about having a family. My wife and I were too poor to have babies. Then all of a sudden, one came along and scared the hell out of us because we had no money. Once the baby arrives, you make do somehow. You fall in love with the baby and life adjusts itself. You find you don't need as much money as you thought. When that happens, you can ask the questions that should have come before the baby.

Ray Bradbury Writer

Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common sense.

Helen Rowland Journalist

At that time I told myself that I didn't want to fall in love ever again. But that night while praying for your happiness Nana, I thought that despite all the wounds and all the pains it could cause I wanted to dream again, and love someone with all my heart.

Ai Yazawa Manga Author

To be loved by someone is to realize how much they share the same needs that lie at the heart of our own attraction to them. Albert Camus suggested that we fall in love with people because, from the outside, they look so whole, physically whole and emotionally 'together' - when subjectively we feel dispersed and confused. We would not love if there were no lack within us, but we are offended by the discovery of a similar lack in the other. Expecting to find the answer, we find only the duplicate of our own problem.

Alain De Botton Writer

You can fall in love at first sight with a place as with a person.

Alec Waugh Novelist

There are some things, after all, that Sally Owens knows for certain: Always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder. Keep rosemary by your garden gate. Add pepper to your mashed potatoes. Plant roses and lavender, for luck. Fall in love whenever you can.

Alice Hoffman Novelist

I would like a boyfriend. I'm a very happy person and it is the final, final piece of the puzzle. I'm looking for that shout-it-out-from-the-mountaintops, fall-in-love person.

Andy Cohen Host
