The last thing in the world that I would want to know, in my own life, is when I'm going to pass away.

People want what they want, for as long as they want it, then tastes change and something else works.

I think that for me, as far as audience expectations and how you manage your anxiety, it helps to keep things in perspective.

I love cable, but not because you can show boobies and say the F-word. I love it because you have more time to think. That's the blessing of it.

I stay away from the internet as much as I can. Except for pornography.

I've imparted that philosophy to the writers, but some of them look stuff up while some don't. Same with the editors, directors and actors. To each their own.

Let the audience put 2 and 2 together so that it comes up with 4. Let them do that themselves, and they'll love you forever.
