Listen, trials and difficult times can help you become better and move forward, or they can cause you to step backward. It's how you handle those situations that shows who you can become.
We didn't start at 'Fallout 3' and think about how to add to that. We take a step back and think, 'Okay, if we look at all the 'Fallout' games, what would a new one feel like?' So the focus is not ''Fallout 3' plus this'. Then we start really digging into the world.
The reality is you either step into the future, or you become a dinosaur.
It is not when truth is dirty, but when it is shallow, that the lover of knowledge is reluctant to step into its waters.

Success doesn't demand a price. Every step forward pays a dividend.
The next step for me is not 'The Tonight Show.' That's a job for Jimmy Fallon. I'm way too divisive for a show like that.
The new spirituality will step away from dogma, will step away from 'We're right and you're wrong.'
We joke a lot about how, in Hollywood, the writer is one step below the doormat. That's not self-loathing. That's true!
