I didnt have any particular talent for fiction. I took a class in college.

I was a chubby, unathletic kid and conformed to every possible stereotype you could imagine of someone who would end up in public broadcasting.

Go looking for an idea and it'll show up. Begin now.

Great stories happen to those who can tell them.

I dont meet many people who are talking about shows on Showtime.

...these stories are a kind of beacon. By making stories full of empathy and amusement and the sheer pleasure of discovering the world, these writers reassert the fact that we live in a world where joy and empathy and pleasure are all around us, there for the noticing.

I dont know how to read. I get all my news from Jon Stewart every day.
