Damon Lindelof
At some point, you can't take a risk just to take a risk because that's a betrayal, in and of itself.

I look at myself more as a storyteller than a screenwriter, as pretentious as that may sound, but that's what really attracts me to TED Talks. For me, the really effective ones are being presented by expert storytellers.
Damon Lindelof
Good twists are enormously hard to come by, and I think the best ones are earned ones. The idea that a story can take a left turn on you, it's easy to do, but it has to be done very, very carefully, or else you risk losing the audience's trust.

Damon Lindelof
The fundamental law of nature is to not know too much about yourself.
Damon Lindelof
If you do something awesome, you should be proud of yourself.
Damon Lindelof
I'm trying to focus as much on the here and now as possible. To live my life in a way that the humans that I know here on the planet Earth feel like they've been treated with respect by me, whether they're people that I'm very close to or the audience who's watching my work.
Damon Lindelof
Finding meaning in the relationships that we have with one another - that's the only way to achieve any kind of fundamental true grace and that points to where it all ends up. It's let's stop being away some place, let's be here. It's, let's be in this.
Damon Lindelof
I've always been fascinated by Disneyland and Disney World, and my favorite part of the park was always Tomorrowland.
Damon Lindelof
I think that at the end of the day I'm drawn to a certain level of ambiguous storytelling that requires hard thought and work in the same way that the New York Times crossword puzzle does: Sometimes you just want to put it down or throw it out the window, but there's a real rewarding sense if you feel like you've cracked it.
