I love writing. I like reading, other people, not myself.

Comedians don't laugh. They're too busy analyzing why it's funny or not.

A good day's writing, when I turn off my computer after I know that I've written okay, or as well as I can write, that's a day well spent.

I may be writing well, I may be writing poorly, but I enjoy the act of writing and sometimes when it turns out okay, I feel an elation that is incomparable.

Landing the airplane I think is the most difficult thing that I've every learned to do in my life.

I think that anybody's craft is fascinating. A taxi driver talking about taxi driving is going to be very, very interesting.

Olivier was another case of a genius, who couldn't understand why anybody would have any trouble doing this, because for him it came so easily.
