|
" The only thing that matters is the story."
" We are all in this together."
“ I think we ought to be able to do anything we want to do.”
“ You don't lead by hitting people over the head -that's assault, not leadership.”
" I am a writer, and I am a man of the people."
" I think that the best thing we can do is to be ourselves."
" You can't really be a writer if you don't have a little bit of madness in you."
