• Por claridad no quiero decir que siempre estemos en una especie de zona sencilla en la que todo es claro y reconfortante y se entiende. La claridad es ciertamente un camino hacia la desorientación, porque si no empiezas - si el lector no tiene los pies en la tierra, si el lector está desorientado al principio del poema, entonces el lector no puede extraviarse o desorientarse después.

• I always have a few ideas that are percolating, and then after I've finished a book and it's a year later, and things are sort of festering and things are disgusting in my house and I have to get back to work, whatever project I keep thinking about is the one I end up working on. Sort of a very simple process of elimination.

• Presento lo que vamos a hacer como un simple punto de partida. Todos saben que es una obra de arte y que todo va a quedar grabado. Y nunca he tenido una experiencia en la que uno de estos hombres intentara aprovecharse de la situación. Si eran culpables de algo era de estar solos. Nunca fue que fueran violentos o peligrosos.

• You don't have to spend the entire day hunched over your computer consuming this information. Maybe, it is as simple as once in a while glancing down at the device that's invaluable to you or many reasons, catching up, or it lets you know when you should know something. But as these things get better and we get more connected in it, it will get more sophisticated.

• One of the central flaws in the state of contemporary music is that the major record companies have failed to incorporate that simple fact into their business plans. They've come into an industry that's based on idiosyncratic artists and tried to erase every idiosyncratic aspect out of it.

• How can a country be home to sectarian militias and yet also to people who are educated, sophisticated, and pluralistic? This is not a simple matter. It's the kind of dialectical inquiry that's impossible to present in the world of Twitter feeds and newspapers where stories are shorter and shorter and more simplistic.

• No es que toque la guitarra ni de lejos tan bien como ella canta, pero creo que siempre he tenido tendencia a tocar los solos de la misma manera, en relación emocional con la estructura de la canción. Elijo líneas sencillas, y sólo toco lo que me parece emocionalmente relevante, y a menudo expreso esa emoción en el tiempo, que está en juego o se resiste al tiempo establecido de la canción.

• With enough money and international coordination, we can push incoming asteroids out of Earth's path. We might even be able to bring back extinct animals in the lab. The problem really isn't scientific - it's cultural. We aren't yet able to coordinate ourselves as a global civilization to do something simple like bring food to a famine-stricken region. We can actually use current satellite technologies to predict where famine will strike next, but we can't get food there - usually for political reasons.

• With my students, I don't offer any simple tips like that, maybe because my own process is pretty messy, but when we workshop we talk a lot about the deeper subject, which is what the story or novel is about. I think defining a narrative's themes can lay bare a narrative's tensions.

• Algunas de las personas a las que vemos acuden para defenderse de sus maltratadores, o por cargos de drogas que, debido al sistema penitenciario del estado de California, tienen sentencia obligatoria y cadena perpetua por tres cargos de simple posesión de drogas, o lo que sea. No sólo me resulta útil, sino que creo que es necesario para mantener los pies en la tierra y la perspectiva. Porque la música es un trabajo muy poco realista. Es un trabajo muy afortunado, pero también muy poco realista.

• Writing a great song is not a simple task, but I feel like when everything comes together and you sing it in a certain way that no-one else can sing it, when it's written in a certain way that's perfect for the way that you're performing it, that those are the things that make a song great.

• [ The Finest Hours] reminded me a lot of a film I did called Unstoppable in that you have a driving thriller aspect of the film and it's not all that complicated of a story and there's a simple elegance to it. I liked that. It is also driven by a really strong romance and ordinary men doing extraordinary things. I love that.

• In most cases, obviously, soldiers fought because a government drafted them and gave them a rifle. At every point too, we see the role of nationalistic sentiment, commercial rivalries, and simple greed. But can we ever separate out such motives from the religious? Was that not also true of the medieval crusades?
