I've worked in the movie business for many, many years, where you have lots of days and lots of money. It's really mainly about time. We always try to conceive all of our action from a place of, "What can we shoot that looks fantastic?," rather than trying to do the kinds of thing that you would be able to accomplish in a movie.

Believing the lie that time will heal all wounds is just a nice way of saying that time deadens us.

I always love it best when you have a project where there is this commingling of the subject matter and the way in which you're recording that subject matter.

The thing about working on a TV show is that it becomes, very quickly, all consuming.

You know, we certainly have a great budget on the show, but the expansions to world of the show really arise because, and this is kind of the idea of the premise of the show, where is each week you're kind of meeting . . . It's random access.

We used to look up at the sky and wonder at our place in the stars. Now we just look down, and worry about our place in the dirt.
