From my own internal fanboy perspective, there's nothing that I hate more than seeing a three minute trailer for a movie where I feel like it's shown me the entire movie.

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
I've always felt that really good prequels should be original movies.
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.

I can't live my life under the sort of I cannot fail philosophy, because then every time I do fail, which feels more inevitable than me being perfect all the time, it's going to be soul crushing. And more importantly, I'll never take any risks.

I love collaborating with different people.

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.

When someone says something in an interview, the beauty of Twitter is that it's a platform for instantaneous response.
Damon Lindelof
If you do something awesome, you should be proud of yourself.
Damon Lindelof
I think that we, as writers, get excited by risk. When we are feeling comfortable and familiar, I wouldn't say that we get bored, but the energy in the room gets flat. When we're most excited and when the show is the most fun, it's when we're duking things out.
Damon Lindelof
I'm not glass-half-full, glass-half-empty I'm like, There's a glass?
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
When someone says something that really hurts me, I have to retweet it to let it go.
Damon Lindelof
I've always been into having stories told to me. I was a voracious reader, my father was also a teller of tales and the kind of Baron Munchausen proxy of a tall tale was much more interesting than a true tale.
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.

Michael Arndt, that guy - you're just supposed to say nice things about other writers, but I worship Michael Arndt.
