The heart is an organ of fire and you can't stop it from feeling or connecting.

Never in my career have I got the support for what I'm doing, any more than I have on Fringe.

Life is painful sometimes. It touches everyone, so you may as well try to look for other answers and find peace. So, it is difficult to write those types of things because nobody wants to tell sad stories. I think that I'll always tell stories about human hope. I would love to be able to tell somebody, "It's okay. It's all right. Be a good person." That's what my job is, in life.

I'm consistently telling stories about the value of the human condition and connectedness and things like that.

No love story worth telling is easy. The hills and valleys that make a relationship, in my opinion, is really a dynamic worth watching.

I would much rather have somebody say, "You know what? I just didn't like what you were doing," then say, "They didn't know what they were doing." I know what I'm doing. If it's going to be bad, or if it's great, it's me, in either case.

You realize that everything is a moving budget, and sometimes you've got to borrow from Peter to pay Paul, to make it happen.
