It's when you feel worse, that's when your character comes out and the last thing you want to do is quit.

Writing turns everybody into wussies. Everybody quits.

In prose, when you wrote something, it's symphonic… There's something ethereal in that process that's euphoric.

The Hollywood process is a living thing and you get used to that.

There's a story you write, there's a story you shoot and there's a story you cut.

As a writer, you're the guy in the box. You're creating and you have these euphorias.

With prose, I know where I'm starting and I think I know where I'm going.

It's a great euphoria when you reach that writing zone.
