From my perspective of a guy in his late forties, its becoming more and more clear to me that the right thing to do and the wrong thing to do all depend on what part of life you are looking at it from.

There is nothing more boring than people who love you.

Ensemble is hard to do. It's like 3-D chess.

If all I ever wrote about was inner city freaks, I think it would be dishonest.

I was definitely surprised when Talk Radio took off as a play. As a film it has become somewhere between a popular thing and a cult thing.

I provide the bricks and mortar with the words and situations - the director and the actors and the designers build the house.
