• En esencia, las escrituras no son tan diferentes. Digamos que, en términos literarios, es la diferencia entre escribir horizontalmente y escribir verticalmente. En la televisión en directo, escribías mucho más verticalmente. Tenías que sondear a la gente porque no tenías dinero ni decorados ni ninguna de las dimensiones físicas que te permite el cine. Así que, por lo general, sondeabas a la gente un poco más. La escritura cinematográfica es mucho más horizontal. Puedes insertar lo que quieras: praderas, campos de batalla, el Taj Mahal, un reparto de miles de personas. Pero esencialmente, escribir una historia es escribir una historia.

• Film writing and concert writing are two very different things. In film writing I am serving the film and it tells you what to write. I have to stay within the parameters of the film. In writing concert music for the stage I can write anything I want and in this day and modern age rules can be broken.

• Tanto el sexo como la muerte son temas eternos. Podrías hacer miles de películas sobre este tema, y si tienes un ser humano que pinta, canta, hace una película, escribe, estos son los temas a los que volverás y volverás. Si no tienes ninguna de estas expresiones artísticas, el sexo es uno de los únicos regalos que la naturaleza te dio gratis, así que es muy importante celebrarlo. Y luego, con la muerte, estamos condenados a eso. Esto está absolutamente presente en nuestras vidas.

• I think television is moving more into movies, particularly with serialization and almost cinematic proportions and expectations. A show like 'Game of Thrones' is a perfect example of that, or even a show like 'The Wire,' which isn't all about instant gratification it's about inviting someone into the long experience of television the way you'd be invited into a theater for two hours. So I think in that way, and the quality of writing in television is probably much better than most film writing.
