Keep a small can of WD-40 on your desk — away from any open flames — to remind yourself that if you don’t write daily, you will get rusty.

George Singleton

To me, movies and music go hand in hand. When I’m writing a script, one of the first things I do is find the music I’m going to play for the opening sequence.

Quentin Tarantino

The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do.

Thomas Jefferson

What I loved most about calling myself a reporter was that it gave me an excuse to show up anyplace.

Jeanette Walls

Kurt Vonnegut, Jr

There are three primal urges in human beings: Food, sex, and rewriting someone else’s play.

Romulus Linney
