So Far, At Least, I Haven't Found

If I Grew Up In A Different Background, I Could See Myself Getting A Gun And Shooting An Abortionist. That's My Job, To Imagine What Could Happen, What Can Make People Go In Different Directions.

I've Always Said That I Myself Am Not The Best Audience For My Own Work, Because I'm Just Not That Receptive To Comedy.

I Love Working With Actors. If You Cast The Right Person In The Right Part At The Right Time, They Make You Look Like A Better Writer And Director Than You Really Are.

I Mean, I Don't Want To Sound - Of Course It's Very Nice, People Come Up And Say Appreciative Things About My Work. But The Loss, In Terms Of Privacy And Anonymity, Is No Small Thing To Me.

You Try To Make Them Comfortable So They Can Do What They're Best At, And Make Them Shine. You Always Want To Make An Actor Shine. I'm Of The Mind That There's No One - You, Your Mother, Anyone, That If In The Right Place At The Right Time In The Right Context, Couldn't Shine In A Movie. And So If It Means, "oh, I Have To Make Them Uncomfortable," Then Whatever It Takes To Get What I Need Up Onscreen. It's All In The Service Of The Story.
