Anybody in television lives under grinding deadlines.

I went to a couple Academy Awards parties and I was definitely like, 'Whoa, no one will talk to me.'

I'm a producer... I am a Hollywood producer. That is so weird. And it's not lame. But it's just like, how did that happen?

I've been to China and Russia, and I don't know anything about Chinese or Soviet relations.

We're kind of like the smoking section in high school. We're immature, keep to ourselves.

Do goofy stories make people nice? What if, in their goofiness, these stories somehow inspire that in the right way. Is that a social good?

It's the business of movies, it's the fights that go along with the level of budget, and more than anything, it's the creative constipation of having to live with one idea for two or three years. It's just not that fun.
