I like telling stories of imperfect people because most people are imperfect.

I did three or four weeks of work on 'Godzilla' it wasn't a page-one rewrite or anything like that. The term is 'script doctoring,' is what I did on it.

I relate to the feeling that Da Vinci was often plagued by the idea that what he did wasn't good enough, that he was his harshest critic. He'd sometimes destroy what he was working on.

When I was a kid, I read many more Marvel comics than I did DC. As I got older, in high school and then in college, I started reading more DC.

I've long said that comic books are the modern equivalent of our Greek myths.

I love comic books. I was weaned on them, so it's not like it's a stretch for me, but I have other interests, as well.

During my career I’ve enjoyed re-invigorating and contextualizing classic characters that are relatable to contemporary audiences.

Da Vinci always seemed like the prototype Tony Stark to me.

Mysticism and the supernatural are embedded in the show - it's called 'Da Vinci's Demons' for a reason, and it's not just metaphorical.

I honestly love nothing better than digging into a really good serialized show, whether it's 'Breaking Bad' or 'Game of Thrones' or 'Justified.'

It's ironic: In movies, the most successful films of all time have been sci-fi or fantasy. By far. But a lot of people won't even read science fiction books.

Sometimes you think you aren't a good mama you always feel a bit guilty when you're a mom. You want to be everywhere.

I went down to Miami, and somebody saw me on the streets, and that's how I got into modeling.

Sonia Sotomayor is uniquely and exquisitely sensitive to race issues because she is a Latina.

After long experience of politics, I have never found that there is any inhibition caused by ignorance as regards criticism.

That's why we read fiction, isn't it? To remind us that whatever we suffer, we're not the only ones?

and i wouldn't say no to something sweet.

I'm starstruck everyday. The day I'm not starstruck, I'll have to retire.

Happiness is not a tangible thing, it's a byproduct - a byproduct of achievement.

...they'd just tell you to turn the other cheek, wouldn't they?...Trouble is, Mrs. Dowdel observed, after you've turned the other cheek four times, you run out of cheeks.

The key to getting the most from choice is to be choosy about choosing.
