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

I dont go looking for stories with the idea of wrongness in my head, no. But the fact is, a lot of great stories hinge on people being wrong.

I think good radio often uses the techniques of fiction: characters, scenes, a big urgent emotional question. And as in the best fiction, tone counts for a lot.

Honestly, I am so ignorant of how dance works that I cant even imagine a story that you would want to tell through movement.

I can only control what I can control.

I remember clearly that when I was little it was explained to me [that] the way that babies were made was that God put the baby into some lady's stomach, right? And, at some point, I learned how it really happened, and really that was the beginning of the end of my belief in God. Up until that point, it had always been a really weird act of intervention on God's part.

I don't think I've ever stolen anything.
