I much prefer writing an original movie with the screen in mind to transferring a play to the screen.

Never underestimate the stimulation of eccentricity.

Sports is the only entertainment where, no matter how many times you go back, you never know the ending.

When its 100 degrees in New York, it's 72 in Los Angeles. When its 30 degrees in New York, in Los Angeles it's still 72. However, there are 6 million interesting people in New York, and only 72 in Los Angeles.

Once you've opened yourself up, it's best to go all the way.

I never write a play with an eye to film.
