My reasons were completely personal, ... My wife is an architect; I have two kids under 3. There may be a time when I am willing to uproot them, but this is not it. |
Now that that paradigm has worked, the market will be inundated, ... It's a revenue source companies weren't aware of. If money can be made, it will be made ... I was just in the video store and those awaiting the first season of 'McMillan and Wife' need wait no longer. |
Originally, I was hesitant. But then it's also sort of why I became really interested, because she doesn't have so much baggage for me, the way, say, Spider-Man would. |
Our luck? You noticed anything in particular about our luck these past few days? Any kind of pattern? You depend on luck, end up on the drift, no fuel, no prospects, begging for alliance make-work and towed out to the scrap belt. Well, that ain't us. Not ever. |
Passion, it lies in all of us, sleeping... waiting... and though unwanted... unbidden... it will stir... open its jaws and howl. It speaks to us... guides us... passion rules us all, and we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love... the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion maybe we'd know some kind of peace... but we would be hollow... Empty rooms shuttered and dank. Without passion we'd be truly dead. |
People would say, 'You're going to need this and that,' and I'd be like, 'Not so much.' If I only needed three walls, we only built three, and if someone asked, 'Well, what if you want to do this other shot?' I said, 'Well, we just won't.' |
Remember to always be yourself. Unless you suck. |

She doesn't really understand this world. She's very strong but she's also very naive. She's not quite as little as the girls I'm used to writing, but she's definitely one of them in the sense of she'll undergo that kind of baptism of fire that used to be relegated to the male gender. |
The 10 Terrific |
The idea behind the show, ... was to take nine people and say, 'Nine people look out into the blackness of space, and see nine different things.' But science fiction opens you up to every element of history that you want, because the future is just the past in a blender. So I could take anything from the human experience I've read about or felt or seen. Like, what is it like after a war? It doesn't matter which war or which country - what is it like for the people who lost? |
The thing about a hero, is even when it doesn't look like there's a light at the end of the tunnel, he's going to keep digging, he's going to keep trying to do right and make up for what's gone before, just because that's who he is. |
The two things that matter the most to me: emotional resonance and rocket launchers. Party of Five, a brilliant show, and often made me cry uncontrollably, suffered ultimately from a lack of rocket launchers. |
There are good crews in every country, ... But there are certain ways of working. We were able to communicate quickly in a kind of shorthand — there was a sense of family on the set. Jack Green even had three of his kids working camera. |
