One of the most fundamental questions people have about defense attorneys is, 'How can you do that? How can you go to bat everyday for a person that you may not know is guilty but you have a pretty good idea that he's not so innocent?' It's a question that defense attorneys answer for themselves by not addressing.

So I think a writer should write what he loves, the people he relates to.

The designer [...] has a passion for doing something that fits somebody's needs, but that is not just a simple fix. The designer has a dream that goes beyond what exists, rather than fixing what exists. [...] The designer wants to create a solution that fits in a deeper situational or social sense.

Some of my high school teachers did remind me that I had an excellent imagination when it came to making up excuses.

I don't think I could write a straight drama.

You learn more when things go wrong.

But I do believe that in all my shows, I really enjoy the quirky, the eccentric characters, the ones you don't meet every day.
