What I find interesting is that the people that follow your Twitters are called 'followers.' Talk about false idolatry, right?
If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style.
Where ignorance is bliss it's foolish to borrow your neighbor's newspaper.
If ignorant both of your enemy and yourself, you are certain to be in peril.
Let's help take back our country with our wallets, and don't forget to contact your senators and congressman to let them know that you don't want amnesty for illegal aliens, that you want them to restore our borders and our sovereignty.
That's part of the requirement for me to be an artist is that you're trying to share your personal existence with others and trying to illuminate modern life, trying to understand life.
As a playwright, you can cover a lot of waterfront without being able to hold your own against an expert in any of those areas. I have no illusions about that.
L.A. is a very illusory place. You don't really know who your friends are here because more often than not, it seems like it's just about getting ahead at any cost.
Be able to draw an illustration as least well enough to get your point across to another person.
An illustration I use to get people to understand it is this: I'll ask major corporate audiences: Why don't you just take all your traditional beliefs about organizations, and apply them to the neurons in your brain?
When you read a novel, your own imagery is the most important. It's what makes reading such a wonderful thing.
Live out of your imagination, not your history.
If you lose sight of the smaller accomplishments, you end up with an imbalance in your life.
How hard it is to make your thoughts look anything but imbecile fools when you paint them with ink on paper.
The one thing an audience always has in common with a comedian is troubles. The Yiddish word for that is tsuris. You're always putting your tsuris on stage whether you like it or not. No one is untroubled, unless they're just, you know, an imbecile.
Art, as far as it is able, follows nature, as a pupil imitates his master; thus your art must be, as it were, God's grandchild.
Once you see your nature, sex is basically immaterial.
I love radio - its immediacy and especially its intimacy... it is part of your life, whispering into your ear. You can't see it, but equally importantly it can't see you.
No other terms than unconditional and immediate surrender. I propose to move immediately upon your works.
I think the pairing of your material practice with your subject is something that is the constant concern of every artist for time immemorial.
