A lot of writers want everything put on screen, but it doesn't work like that. The screenwriter brings her own imaginative interpretation, just as the director and actors do. ~ Susan Hill
Screenwriter quotes by Susan Hill
I was just starting out, trying to become a screenwriter, and I became the Austin slam champion three times. For a nerdy, kind of a socially awkward guy, that did wonders for my self esteem. ~ Ernest Cline
Screenwriter quotes by Ernest Cline
Words exist in the smile on your face, the life in your eyes, the passion in your soul, and those beautiful and open enough to recognize it. THAT is a writers haven … ~ Dawn Garcia
Screenwriter quotes by Dawn Garcia
Screenwriting is a terrible way to make a living and I always try to talk anyone out of it. Until you sit in a story meeting with studio executives with no particular ability or actors who haven't even graduated high school telling you exactly how to change your script, you haven't experienced what it's really like to be a screenwriter in Hollywood. Also, unlike novelists and playwrights, you don't own the copyright on your original material. It hurts when you sell a project you love and then suddenly the project you really cared about will never see the light of day. ~ Amy Holden Jones
Screenwriter quotes by Amy Holden Jones
I've certainly seen stats that if you have a woman director or a woman screenwriter, the number of female characters goes way up. ~ Emma Donoghue
Screenwriter quotes by Emma Donoghue
As Frances Marion rose to accept the Academy Award for Screenwriting for her original story The Big House, she became the first woman writer to win an Oscar. Since 1917, she had been the highest-paid screenwriter in Hollywood - male or female - and was hailed as "the all-time best script and story writer the motion picture world has ever produced." Just forty and "as beautiful as the stars she wrote for," Frances was already credited with writing over one hundred produced films. ~ Cari Beauchamp
Screenwriter quotes by Cari Beauchamp
Rhiannon Anna Maria Reyes, (Strength 10, Dexterity 14, Stamina 12, Will 17, IQ 16 and Charisma 15 -- Geek 7 / Barista 3 / Screenwriter 2 / Gamer Girl 2) was Bryan's secret weapon. Rhiannon (known to practically everyone as "Ree") kept the café in fabulous baked goods, talked authoritatively about subjects from Aliens to Zork, and drew the attentions of countless lovelorn geeks. ~ Michael R. Underwood
Screenwriter quotes by Michael R. Underwood
Everyone has their truth. Mine lies in the cinema. ~ Dawn Garcia
Screenwriter quotes by Dawn Garcia
A great trick that I learned having worked as a screenwriter for many years, the way screenwriters work, is they break the project down into three-act structure: Act 1, Act 2, Act 3. I think that is a great way to break down any project, whether it's a new business or anything at all. ~ Steven Pressfield
Screenwriter quotes by Steven Pressfield
It's really hard as a screenwriter, you feel like you have a vision and then you turn it over to a director and you have to let it go. ~ Lorene Scafaria
Screenwriter quotes by Lorene Scafaria
It's funny because when I was growing up, I was really into science fiction and fantasy as a kid. And, when I first became a screenwriter, I ended up really just doing historical drama and non-fiction based stuff, like Band of Brothers and stuff that didn't get made, but was also non-fiction. ~ John Orloff
Screenwriter quotes by John Orloff
In Lovelock's view the earth was a 'super-organism,' a cybernetic feedback system that 'seeks an optimal physical and chemical environment for life on this planet.' At the suggestion of his neighbor, author and screenwriter William Goldman, he called the system Gaia after the ancient Greek Earth goddess. ~ Steven Kotler
Screenwriter quotes by Steven Kotler
One of the worst parts about working in entertainment is that there's so much you're expected to have seen. Oh, you're a screenwriter? You've seen the new Batman, then, right? I'm watching this show on Amazon, right now, and oh my god, it's so good - but I'm sure you've already seen it. The reality is, I'm usually so busy on my own work, I rarely have time to see anything that isn't required for some kind of voting. ~ Jenny Trout
Screenwriter quotes by Jenny Trout
Screenwriter Flacco nicely evokes the aftermath of San Francisco's 1906 earthquake in his fiction debut, a novel of suspense. ~ William Bernhardt
Screenwriter quotes by William Bernhardt
But here's the thing: what you do as a screenwriter is you sell your copyright. As a novelist, as a poet, as a playwright, you maintain your copyright. ~ Beth Henley
Screenwriter quotes by Beth Henley
We always for better or worse try to put on paper what's going up on screen - whether we're directing it or not. It's really just an extension of that habit which is trying to tell the reader what the movie will look like. Ultimately that is the job of a screenwriter to a certain extent. ~ John Francis Daley
Screenwriter quotes by John Francis Daley
Okay, you got me. The screenwriter is a vampire. Now go to your own desk and call Mimi so she can call me and I can get my day started ~ Tere Michaels
Screenwriter quotes by Tere Michaels
Try everything; listen to everyone. Follow no one. You are your own story guru! ~ Jeff Lyons
Screenwriter quotes by Jeff Lyons
With a novel, you're the director and the screenwriter and everything else, except that you have to write it knowing it will all be performed inside the head of the reader. So it's a difficult and lonely task. ~ Jason Henderson
Screenwriter quotes by Jason Henderson
Since signing with Universal, I have been working closely with Gary Ross, the director, producer and screenwriter. We have spent many hours on the phone, and I've been sending him information and items that have been useful to the writing process. ~ Laura Hillenbrand
Screenwriter quotes by Laura Hillenbrand
The Iraq war is a huge subject and there have been many films about it. But it was when the private contractors started taking over and taking responsibilities from the regular army, which hides the war. You have these private armies of mercenaries acting with immunity for their actions, the worst of which was the Blackwater case where they killed 17 Iraqi civilians and the guys who did it just went home. We [screenwriter Paul Laverty and Loach] felt this deserved a story. ~ Ken Loach
Screenwriter quotes by Ken Loach
Just watch any husband arguing with his wife about something insignificant; listen to what they say and watch how their residual emotions manifest when the fight is over. It's so formulaic and unsurprising that you wouldn't dare re-create it in a movie. All the critics would mock it. They'd all say the screenwriter was a hack who didn't even try. This is why movies have less value than we like to pretend - movies can't show reality, because honest depictions of reality offend intelligent people. ~ Chuck Klosterman
Screenwriter quotes by Chuck Klosterman
I probably could be a world-class screenwriter by now if I had spent the kind of work I devote on Comedy Death-Ray to that. But I do okay, in that regard. I mean, my stuff gets bought, so it's all right. ~ Scott Aukerman
Screenwriter quotes by Scott Aukerman
On the first of July, while Ariel sat on their blanket, gazing out at the sun-spangled water, Chyna tried to read a newspaper, but every story distressed her. War, rape, murder, robbery, politicians spewing hatred from all ends of the political spectrum. She read a movie review full of vicious ipse dixit criticism of the director and screenwriter, questioning their very right to create, and then turned to a woman columnist's equally vitriolic attack on a novelist, none of it genuine criticism, merely venom, and she threw the paper in a trash can. ~ Dean Koontz
Screenwriter quotes by Dean Koontz
I've been a screenwriter for twenty-five years. Every one of my books have been optioned for movies and I have written a few of those screenplays. ~ Alice Hoffman
Screenwriter quotes by Alice Hoffman
Author and screenwriter Neil Gaiman, in a 2012 commencement address at the University of the Arts, said that excellence in business can be boiled down to three simple things: 1. Be Efficient: Turn in work on time. 2. Be Effective: Do great work. 3. Be Congenial: Be a pleasure to work with.1 Gaiman added that even mastering two of the three will take you far. If you do great work and are a pleasure to work with, most people will forgive you for missing a deadline. If you're always on time and a pleasure to work with, most people put up with less than perfect work. If you turn in great work on time, most people will put up with you being unpleasant. ~ Brad Lomenick
Screenwriter quotes by Brad Lomenick
He'd discovered that his memories of that summer were like bad movie montages - young lovers tossing a Frisbee in the park, sharing a melting ice-cream cone, bicycling along the river, laughing, talking, kissing, a sappy score drowning out the dialogue because the screenwriter had no idea what these two people might say to each other. ~ Richard Russo
Screenwriter quotes by Richard Russo
A screenwriter heard me read from my novel 'The Wishbones' when it was still in progress and mentioned me to some producers in Hollywood. They called, and I told them I had a novel in my drawer about a high school election that goes haywire. They asked to take a look, and my life changed pretty dramatically as a result. ~ Tom Perrotta
Screenwriter quotes by Tom Perrotta
I grit my teeth and smile for the camera, already rehearsing rational explanations in my head. 'Oh, that. We were just rehearsing a scene for the movie, Dad. No, we don't actually kiss in the movie, but the director wanted to see what it would look like if we did... Yes, he does play my uncle, but the screenwriter was toying with an incest storyline'... CRAP. ~ Lauren Miller
Screenwriter quotes by Lauren Miller
It's very hard to be a screenwriter. I remember getting a couple of awards. I got a PEN West award a million years ago when I did Running on Empty, and I sat in the room with all these writers. They wrote everything from novels to non-fiction to children's books to journalism - any kind of writing - and I realized that there was no one in the room who would ever read anything I'd written. ~ Naomi Foner Gyllenhaal
Screenwriter quotes by Naomi Foner Gyllenhaal
The author and screenwriter William Goldman says that "the key to all story endings is to give the audience what it wants, but not in the way it expects. ~ Jon Steel
Screenwriter quotes by Jon Steel
My daughter has seen the transition from struggling screenwriter to successful picture book author, and she's enjoyed it very much because she's a wonderful little kid. And she's always believed in her daddy. ~ Drew Daywalt
Screenwriter quotes by Drew Daywalt
As a screenwriter, there's so many layers you have to go through in order to tell your story. You have to write the script, get money for the script, shoot it, find distributors, make it into film festivals, all of that just to get to your audience. ~ Morley
Screenwriter quotes by Morley
Pace begins in the screenplay. Cliche or not, we must control rhythm and tempo. It needn't be a symmetrical swelling of activity and shaving of scene lengths, but progressions must be shaped. For if we don't, the film editor will. And if to trim our sloppy work he cuts some of our favorite moments, we have no one to blame but ourselves. We're screenwriters, not refugees from the novel. Cinema is a unique art form. The screenwriter must master the aesthetics of motion pictures and create a screenplay that prepares the way for the artists who follow. ~ Robert McKee
Screenwriter quotes by Robert McKee
I don't think I'm more of a screenwriter than I am a fiction writer. I'm more of a reader than a film-watcher, so I imagine that I'm not approaching fiction or films in a particularly cinematic way. ~ Miranda July
Screenwriter quotes by Miranda July
Over the years, I've realized that I have as much in common with the performance artist, the standup comedian, the screenwriter, as I do with the theologian. I'm in an odd world where I make things and share them with people. ~ Rob Bell
Screenwriter quotes by Rob Bell
If you want to be a screenwriter, take an acting class to get a sense of what you're asking actors to do. Learning other skills will help you communicate with people and respect what they do. ~ Tina Fey
Screenwriter quotes by Tina Fey
Every screenwriter worthy of the name has already directed his film when he has written his script. ~ Joseph L. Mankiewicz
Screenwriter quotes by Joseph L. Mankiewicz
A screenwriter is much like being a fire hydrant with a bunch of dogs lined up around it. ~ Frank Miller
Screenwriter quotes by Frank Miller
Ever since I was young, 14 or 15, I wondered if you could write a book that combined the visceral thrill of watching a movie with the total immersion you feel when you're inside a good book. And I had some success as a screenwriter before I began writing books. ~ Rick Yancey
Screenwriter quotes by Rick Yancey
Silence of the Lambs screenwriter Ted Tally put the art of writing dialogue succinctly: 'What's important is not the emotion they're playing but the emotion they're trying to conceal. ~ John Yorke
Screenwriter quotes by John Yorke
Guy Ritchie is the worst screenwriter in the world, but, to be fair, he is not the worst director. He is only the worst director of the people who actually get to make movies. As we speak, there are human beings walking the Earth
perhaps as many as a half dozen of them
with less directorial talent, but they've been safely diverted into other activities. ~ Mick LaSalle
Screenwriter quotes by Mick LaSalle
I have a lot of screenwriter friends and many of them have had an experience where they aren't even welcome on set during production. ~ Diablo Cody
Screenwriter quotes by Diablo Cody
As a screenwriter and a half-Jew, I tend to look at the glass half-empty. ~ John Francis Daley
Screenwriter quotes by John Francis Daley
The great thing, as a screenwriter, is that you are always proud of what ends up on the screen, you are able to create something in isolation and you have a lot of freedom. ~ Jamie Linden
Screenwriter quotes by Jamie Linden
Do I have an original thought in my head? My bald head. Maybe if I were happier, my hair wouldn't be falling out.
Life is short. I need to make the most of it. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. I'm a walking cliché.
I really need to go to the doctor and have my leg checked. There's something wrong. A bump. The dentist called again. I'm way overdue. If I stop putting things off, I would be happier. All I do is sit on my fat ass. If my ass wasn't fat I would be happier. I wouldn't have to wear these shirts with the tails out all the time. Like that's fooling anyone. Fat ass.
I should start jogging again. Five miles a day. Really do it this time. Maybe rock climbing. I need to turn my life around. What do I need to do? I need to fall in love. I need to have a girlfriend. I need to read more, improve myself. What if I learned Russian or something? Or took up an instrument? I could speak Chinese. I'd be the screenwriter who speaks Chinese and plays the oboe. That would be cool.
I should get my hair cut short. Stop trying to fool myself and everyone else into thinking I have a full head of hair. How pathetic is that?
Just be real. Confident. Isn't that what women are attracted to? Men don't have to be attractive. But that's not true. Especially these days. Almost as much pressure on men as there is on women these days.
Why should I be made to feel I have to apologize for my existence? Maybe it's my brain chemistry. Maybe that's what's wron ~ Charlie Kaufman
Screenwriter quotes by Charlie Kaufman
In the neighborhood around Waseda, there were all these movie theaters, so every morning I left the house and watched movies instead of going to class. The experience of encountering films then is one of my greatest memories. Before that I'd never paid any attention to directors, but there I was taking a crash course in Ozu, Kurosawa, Naruse, Truffaut, Renoir, Fellini. Because I've always been naturally a more introspective person, I was more interested in becoming a screenwriter than a director. ~ Hirokazu Koreeda
Screenwriter quotes by Hirokazu Koreeda
The eternal challenge for screenwriter adapters is figuring out how to make something work on screen, when so much of what made it work in the book were the thoughts of the character, and obviously wanting to avoid voiceover. ~ David Benioff
Screenwriter quotes by David Benioff
The director Denis [Villeneuve] is actually an actor (he's from Sons of Anarchy and he's a great character actor) and he's also a screenwriter (he wrote What Lies Beneath). It blows my mind to see when people from one sector move to another and excel. I think Sicario was one of the best directed and written films. It did get [a nomination for best] cinematography, though. ~ Bun B.
Screenwriter quotes by Bun B.
As a screenwriter - if you are completely honest with yourself - you can't help but admit that your greatest threat is the audience, where audience is not understood as a demographic category but as a character outside the script to whom the story is addressed. A good part of the drama necessary for uncovering the story resides in the conflict between the storyteller and his/her audience. Audience plays the part of antagonist to the writer's role as protagonist. The writer drives the action, which is forever complicated, frustrated and undermined by the audience's needs and sensibilities. Audience wants you to prove it. Audience has a chip on its shoulder, and doesn't give a damn. Audience has been there and done that in the guise of your mother, your father, your ex-, your worst enemy. Audience laughs at your stupidity and dares you to change its view of you and the story world that you would have it care about. Audience is defiant. It has your number. The only way you can defeat it is by carrying a bigger stick - your only defence is an inspired offence, namely the story. ~ Billy Marshall Stoneking
Screenwriter quotes by Billy Marshall Stoneking
Being a screenwriter is not enough for a full creative life. ~ William Goldman
Screenwriter quotes by William Goldman
Starting in '98 when I was researching 'Traffic,' I got to meet really serious people in Washington, which for a screenwriter was kind of a great gift. And I really valued these guys; I stayed in touch with them, and I find their point-of-view quite interesting. ~ Stephen Gaghan
Screenwriter quotes by Stephen Gaghan
What I do have to get across is the truth of the moment within the given scene. It's my job, as a director and screenwriter, to create the environment in which all those moments will come together eventually. ~ James Gray
Screenwriter quotes by James Gray
With a screenwriter and with the actors there is always an environment of trust. You can say anything, all your secrets, and you know that it won't get out of that room. ~ Deniz Gamze Erguven
Screenwriter quotes by Deniz Gamze Erguven
Normally with film, it's normal for the screenwriter to never be seen again after finishing until the premiere. ~ Jane Goldman
Screenwriter quotes by Jane Goldman
To be a screenwriter is to deal with an ongoing tug of war between breathtaking megalomania and insecurity so deep it takes years of therapy just to be able to say "I'm a writer" out loud. ~ Blake Snyder
Screenwriter quotes by Blake Snyder
You have to determine what you are and send the messages out to people, like, 'Hey, I'm a screenwriter - look at this.' You can't sit around, wondering why people aren't calling and asking about my writing. ~ Zach Galligan
Screenwriter quotes by Zach Galligan
Very often, things that people may think come from the writer, very often don't. There's a lot of cooks in the kitchen when it comes to making a movie. When you hear a line of dialogue that sounds kind of tinny, it's pretty easy to cite the screenwriter. But there's a lot of stuff that goes into making a movie. ~ Evan Daugherty
Screenwriter quotes by Evan Daugherty
What I want is to be the highest grossing screenwriter, or to have some other woman be the highest grossing screenwriter, instead of being number nine on the list. That's my goal. ~ Melissa Rosenberg
Screenwriter quotes by Melissa Rosenberg
When I was really young I didn't know that there was such a thing as a screenwriter. I wrote stories. ~ John Sayles
Screenwriter quotes by John Sayles
I guess like any writer or screenwriter I'm alone in my own world so much of the time that I'm often trying to force myself out of my world. Into more risk. A less controlled kind of inspiration. I'm so keenly aware of how easy it's getting to not leave the house, with Amazon, especially. ~ Miranda July
Screenwriter quotes by Miranda July
Beware 'good' main characters who have a limited repertory of culturally acceptable feelings, while your evil bastards have a full range of vivid, passionate feelings. ~ Bill Johnson
Screenwriter quotes by Bill Johnson
I was in New York. Hitchcock was in California. He rang me to make a report on his progress and said, I'm having trouble. I've just sacked my second screenwriter. ~ Patricia Highsmith
Screenwriter quotes by Patricia Highsmith
Actually having sex with a screenwriter typically led to a blockbuster. ~ Marshall Thornton
Screenwriter quotes by Marshall Thornton
Nothing, I find, has prepared me for the sight of my own characters walking about. A playwright or screenwriter must expect it; a novelist doesn't and naturally concludes that she has gone mad. ~ Susanna Clarke
Screenwriter quotes by Susanna Clarke
Fiction and screenwriting blend for me. I feel like being a TV writer/screenwriter has definitely made my fiction writing better, although I have less time to do it. ~ Nick Antosca
Screenwriter quotes by Nick Antosca
I like writing dialog but don't think I'd be much good at a screenplay. I once had to write a treatment for a novel of mine - a condition of its being optioned by a movie producer - and I turned out something pretty lackluster. So my inclination would be to stay out of the way of an experienced screenwriter. ~ Thomas Mallon
Screenwriter quotes by Thomas Mallon
with you, the sense i have lost my place in a book
or simply lost - misplaced the memory
which isn't in the last place where I looked.
a thought that the clouds don't move - that it is we
who thunder past - there it is! an old vacation,
a train ride - sense of immobility.
as sky and forest scroll past in relation,
we are not moved, pretend to love the view,
resort at length to scripted conversation
by a poet-turned-screenwriter who
didn't want this job, career gone grossly wrong
and now drafts action film scripts wholly two-
dimensional unless you choose to don
the 3d glasses that do not stay on - ~ Joshua Ip
Screenwriter quotes by Joshua Ip
I always loved movies, but I never thought I would presume to be a screenwriter and definitely not a director. ~ Cameron Crowe
Screenwriter quotes by Cameron Crowe
I guess you could say I'm a model slash hotelier slash actor slash screenwriter. ~ Vikram Chatwal
Screenwriter quotes by Vikram Chatwal
Everything you have heard about the shower scene is true. ~ Paul Verhoeven
Screenwriter quotes by Paul Verhoeven
Truth like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold screenwriter of Dead Poets' Society. ~ Tom Schulman
Screenwriter quotes by Tom Schulman
If Harvey had not been taken from us 30 years ago, I think he would want me to say to all the gay and lesbian kids out there tonight who have been told they are less than by the churches, by the government, by their families, that you are beautiful, wonderful creatures of value, and that no matter what anyone tells you, God does love you and that very soon, I promise you, you will have equal rights, federally, across this great nation of ours. ~ Dustin Lance Black
Screenwriter quotes by Dustin Lance Black
But sometimes a person who fits none of these categories comes into your life. This is the joker who pops out of the deck at odd intervals over the years, often during a moment of crisis. In the movies this sort of character is known as the fifth business, or the change agent. When he turns up in a film, you know he's there because the screenwriter put him there. But who is screenwriting our lives? Fate or coincidence? ~ Stephen King
Screenwriter quotes by Stephen King
You are the executive director and screenwriter of your life. ~ Eric Thomas
Screenwriter quotes by Eric Thomas
No one should feel sorry for a successful screenwriter. ~ Tony Gilroy
Screenwriter quotes by Tony Gilroy
It's knowing what really matters, what it is you're chasing – or avoiding – and what makes you feel alive that propels you into a place where your beautiful soul can shine. ~ Dawn Garcia
Screenwriter quotes by Dawn Garcia
Bill Condon, I must say, may have been one of the best professional experiences of my life, collaborating with him. He, himself, is an Academy Award winning screenwriter. He is a storyteller first and foremost, so we speak the same language. We approach things always from the story. ~ Melissa Rosenberg
Screenwriter quotes by Melissa Rosenberg
Most directors, I discovered, need to be convinced that the screenplay they're going to direct has something to do with them. And this is a tricky thing if you write screenplays where women have parts that are equal to or greater than the male part. And I thought, 'Why am I out there looking for directors?' - because you look at a list of directors, it's all boys. It certainly was when I started as a screenwriter. So I thought, 'I'm just gonna become a director and that'll make it easier.' ~ Nora Ephron
Screenwriter quotes by Nora Ephron
If you want to be a great director, be a great screenwriter. ~ Akira Kurosawa
Screenwriter quotes by Akira Kurosawa
I thought it had a very compelling opening, and after a couple of pages, I had that feeling of 'I'm in good hands,' and eager to see where this is going. I felt lots of intrigue, stakes, and conflict right from the outset, with a clear, terse writing style that drew me in right away.
--Erik Bork, Emmy Award winning screenwriter, Band of Brothers. ~ Robert Child
Screenwriter quotes by Robert Child
With the right tools, you can write anything ... ~ Jeff Lyons
Screenwriter quotes by Jeff Lyons
I go out on the side of a hill, maybe hunting deer, and sit there and see the shadow of night coming over the hill, and I can swear to you there is a part of me that is absolutely untouched by anything civilized. There's a part of me that has never heard of a telephone. ~ James Dickey
Screenwriter quotes by James Dickey
Dev laughed a tired, semi-crazed laugh on the other end of the line. 'I never thought life would be so exciting taking on a no-name screenwriter out of Maine.'
Rylie smiled. 'Aren't you glad you did? ~ Jessica Lave
Screenwriter quotes by Jessica Lave
When I was growing up in the south Indian city of Madras, there were only two political parties that mattered; one was run by a former matinee idol, and the other was run by his former screenwriter. ~ Aravind Adiga
Screenwriter quotes by Aravind Adiga
If you keep thinking about putting on a conference or being a Hollywood screenwriter, and you find the idea terrifies but intrigues you, it's probably a worthy endeavor for you. You grow (and thrive!) by doing what excites you and what scares you everyday, not by trying to find your passion. ~ Derek Sivers
Screenwriter quotes by Derek Sivers
I am happy that I'm a better novelist than a screenwriter. ~ Graeme Simsion
Screenwriter quotes by Graeme Simsion
I was a painter, then a novelist, then a journalist, then a screenwriter, and now I'm a director, and it feels all part of the same continuum. One led to the other, and it just feels like the natural confluence of all the ways of storytelling that I've been doing for almost 30 years. ~ Peter Landesman
Screenwriter quotes by Peter Landesman
I started writing morning pages just to keep my hand in, you know, just because I was a writer and I didn't know what else to do but write. And then one day as I was writing, a character came sort of strolling in and I realized, Oh my God, I don't have to be just a screenwriter. I can write novels. ~ Julia Cameron
Screenwriter quotes by Julia Cameron
The state of rapture I experience when I read a wonderful book
is one of the main reasons I read;
but it doesn't happen every time
or even every other time,
and when it does happen,
I am truly beside myself.
~ Nora Ephron
Screenwriter quotes by Nora Ephron
