A good story is a good story, whatever the medium.

I had read enough mediocre scripts and was determined not to inflict another one on the world.

The best writing really does come from the deepest, most private part of you.

Every problem offers an opportunity for a solution. if you are in the right frame of mind to find it.

The way you think either stands in your way or assists you in achieving your goals.

My God, there are so many mediocre screenplays out there.

I figured I’d probably write 50 scripts in my life. Out of those 50, I figured maybe five would be produced, and that maybe one or two would be successful. So I always kind of expected I’d write at least one successful film in my life. [...] The way it all came together was kind of like Murphy's law in reverse—I don’t expect that kind of experience again any time soon.
