To me there's no creativity without boundaries. If you're gonna write a sonnet, it's 14 lines, so it's solving the problem within the container.

Talented people are restless at their core.

A guy comes home from college to find his mother sleeping with his uncle, and there's a ghost running around. Write it good, it's Hamlet; write it bad, it's Gilligan's Island.

If the way they make the show makes it fresh, then it's worthwhile. I think all of these forms have to be blown up every now and then and start again.

Fatigue is your friend. Through exhaustion and through people just being so depleted, the stuff around the nerve endings gets worn away and other things begin to emerge and you take way bigger risks.

The only way you can really deal with creative people is with very loose reins.

When I'm scrambling between dress and air, there are people I like more than other people.
