I Write Plays And Movies, I Live

The Work Of Artists Is To Find What's Humanly Possible - Possibility's Furthest Reaches.

The Fear Of A Work Becoming Dated Is One Of The Most Effective Tools For Keeping People From Writing Political Work.

You Become A Character In A Meta-drama Into Which Your Own Dramatizing Has Pitched You. The Rewards Can Be Fantastic, The Punishments Dismal; It's A Zero Sum Game, And Its Guarantor Of Value, Its Marker Is That You Pretend You Play It Solo, Preserving The Myth That You Alone Are The Wellspring Of Your Creativity.

I've Always Been Drawn To Writing Historical Characters. The Best Stories Are The Ones You Find In History.

Who Knows Better Than Artists How Much Ugliness There Is On The Way To Beauty, How Many Ghastly, Mortifying Missteps, How Many Days Of Granitic Blockheadedness And Dismaying Ineptitude There Is On The Way To Accomplishment, How Partial All Accomplishment Is, How Incomplete?
