If we wait until our lives are free from sorrow or difficulty, then we wait forever. And miss the entire point.

Films must all have the same structure. All of this to guarantee box office bonanza, which of course it never does, but that's another discussion entirely.

It is all about marketing; that is where the real craft comes in. The best actors do not necessarily become the biggest stars. And vice versa.

It is a good motive, fame and money, as it is tangible and measurable. Being an artist is neither measurable nor tangible and certainly not a way to become rich.

I write from the same place I parent, and since becoming a single parent, I have found it difficult, if not impossible, to write anything of length.

My favorite thing is to be alone in a room with a blank paper in front of me and the time to fill it.

Life without kids is like a camera without film.
