More quotes by Damon Lindelof
I think 'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy has a very satisfying ending, and there's not really that deep of a mythological construct.
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
I feel like great TED Talks are ones that are a little bit subject to interpretation, that do provoke further conversation - and potentially controversy.
Damon Lindelof
I was born in 1973, so I did not see 'Alien' when it was released theatrically. I saw 'Alien' when it was on Home Box Office. I think I was probably 10.
Damon Lindelof
It's just immensely frustrating that things like Breaking Bad get made that are kind of perfect! There's not even a bad episode of Breaking Bad, let alone a bad season. I want to be able to say, Hey everybody, it's impossible to make a show where every episode is great! No it's not.
Damon Lindelof
I think that 'The Shield' was a phenomenal series finale.
Damon Lindelof
I've always been fascinated by Disneyland and Disney World, and my favorite part of the park was always Tomorrowland.

I felt like if I said something positive on Twitter, it got no play. But if I said something negative on Twitter, it was a billion retweets and so that was giving me a Pavlovian response to be mean, and I don't want to be mean. We all have mean thoughts. They should not be broadcast on Twitter. You don't need to see mean things.
Damon Lindelof
People are disappointed when the world doesn't end on their watch.
Damon Lindelof
Anger is not a real feeling. Every time in my life I've ever been angry, it's because I was scared, or because I was sad and I didn't know it. Anger doesn't just come out of a vacuum.
Damon Lindelof
Michael Arndt, that guy - you're just supposed to say nice things about other writers, but I worship Michael Arndt.
Damon Lindelof
In really, really good science fiction the line between the science and the fiction is blurry.
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 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
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.
Damon Lindelof
My gravestone will say,'Here Lies Damon Lindelof - Or Does He?
Damon Lindelof
When you're a writer and you're a producer, traditionally the junkets are really focused on the beautiful people and nobody wants to talk to you.
Damon Lindelof
I've always felt that really good prequels should be original movies.
Damon Lindelof
Once you spend more than $100 million on a movie, you have to save the world.
Damon Lindelof
One person's magical thinking is another person's cynicism.
