It's often the case with successful TV shows that they kind of inadvertently live on past their prime. It's best to leave the audience wanting more.

Let the audience put 2 and 2 together so that it comes up with 4. Let them do that themselves, and they'll love you forever.

If you’re too rigid in your thinking you may miss some wonderful opportunities for storytelling.

I wanna keep being productive and creative.

It's weird how with a TV show, you don't have just the one ending - you have the many.

I'm not a big internet guy - not because I'm not interested in what people have to say, but probably because I'm too interested.

I love cable, but not because you can show boobies and say the F-word. I love it because you have more time to think. That's the blessing of it.

People want what they want, for as long as they want it, then tastes change and something else works.

TV is where writers get to tell interesting stories. Because writers, for the most part, run television.

What's so great about making television is that it's a collaborative beast. It's created by a great many hands belonging to a great many people.

I want to believe there's a heaven. But I can't not believe there's a hell.

I realized that the longing for art, like the longing for love, is a malady that blinds us, and makes us forget the things we already know, obscuring reality.

We can do noble acts without ruling the earth and sea.

Yeah, the industry has always been both the enemy and the best friend of the artist. They need each other. That's the bottom line.

Idleness is only a coarse name for my infinite capacity for living in the present.

We can rest confident in the fact that nothing will happen to us in this world apart from the gracious will of a sovereign God. Nothing.

Marriage is the tomb of love.

Britney Spears told an interviewer if she weren't famous, she would be a teacher. So thank God she's famous.

Pretty things will swarm you like that, like your heart was a hive of electric bees.

If my friends are going to the mountains with guns to fight, I will continue that fight, not with guns but with a camera.

It's safer to do nothing and know why you doing it, than to do something and don't know why you do it.
