In the '70s, everybody was doing drugs, so long as you showed up and did your work, they'd use you until you died.

It's nice to work with Hollywood because there is never any question of resources put at your disposal to make a film as long as it is the right thing to do.

I've long believed that if you understand how conversational styles work, you can make adjustments in conversations to get what you want in your relationships.

I have always believed in the fact that it's your work that is going to figure out things for you. As long as you are true to your work, I think you are gonna be fine.

I'm going to start work on developing a series for HBO, because I'm naturally given to episodic stories of considerable length.
