My gravestone will say,'Here Lies Damon Lindelof - Or Does He?

All great sci-fi is: Be careful what you wish for.

If you do something awesome, you should be proud of yourself.

I'm a huge Star Trek fan. I've seen all the shows, I've seen all the movies, but ultimately I just want a 2-hour movie that takes me to another time and place - something that entertains me.

I have found, unfortunately, that if I take on too many projects at one time, there is a higher probability of those projects sucking.

I stand by the Lost finale. It's the story that we wanted to tell, and we told it. No excuses. No apologies. I look back on it as fondly as I look back on the process of writing the whole show. And while I'll always care what you think, I can't be a slave to it anymore. Here's why: I did it for me. I liked it. I was good at it. And I was really … I was alive.

I'll never be immune to criticism, and that's okay, and I'm very comfortable with that.
