I feel like in telling stories, there are the things the audience thinks are important, and then there are the things that are actually important.

I hate to look at the stuff I've written and consider what it means or why I do it.

I love the idea of anthropomorphizing machines. I love the idea of taking technology and giving it a personality.

I sort of love the idea of, you know, watching something and then having to wait for the next episode.

I try to push ideas away, and the ones that will not leave me alone are the ones that ultimately end up happening.

When you work on something that combines both the spectacular and the relatable, the hyperreal and the real, it suddenly can become supernatural. The hypothetical and the theoretical can become literal.

I may be even more grateful to George Lucas now than I was as a kid.
