The Sopranos' is filled with really retrograde humor. Bathroom humor, falls, stupid puns, bad jokes - infantile, adolescent stuff, but it makes me laugh.

Hope comes in many forms.

I had a prior deal in place to do a miniseries for HBO, so I'm not done with TV. But I basically want to stay in movies.

You know, what's interesting is, being your own self is kind of a blur.

Network television is all talk. I think there should be visuals on a show, some sense of mystery to it, connections that don't add up.

I think storytelling is all about children. We human beings love to hear stories being told - and it first happens when you're a kid.

I really like comedy. There's always a choice, when you're writing: you can either go for the joke or you can go for the story, the important stuff.
