With studio work, I'm always the bottom man on the totem pole.

I'm going to do whatever interests me. Look, writing 'Rabbit Hole' came out of an interest in diversifying my portfolio, frankly.

We have this myth that if you work hard, you can accomplish anything. It's not a very American thing to say, but I don't think that's true. It's true for a lot of people, but you need other things to succeed. You need luck, you need opportunity, and you need the life skills to recognize what an opportunity is.

So even the most unlikely events have to take place somewhere.

Only assholes write plays about Nazis.

I didn't go into 'Rabbit Hole' wanting to write about class. I think because of who I am it somehow found its way into it.

I'm just writing about people. People are dark and complicated. I'm trying to tell the truth; that's all that I do.
