Brad Pitt is so good-looking there's a lightbulb inside of him shooting good-looking-ness in all directions.

It's not a terribly original thing to say, but I love Raymond Carver. For one thing, he's fun to read out loud.

Just when did I get to the point when staying at a hotel wasn't fun?

Great stories happen to those who can tell them.

It's hard to make something that's interesting. It's really, really hard. It's like a law of nature, a law of aerodynamics, that anything that's written or anything that's created wants to be mediocre. The natural state of all writing is mediocrity... So what it takes to make anything more than mediocre is such an act of will.

Honestly, there are so many things about structuring a story for film and telling a story for film that are really different from doing radio.
