More quotes by Danny Strong
It seems to me that our presidential elections have turned more into a popularity contest than a real analysis about who really should be President of the United States.
Danny Strong
I think there are a lot more writers who are actors than you know they just don't have roles on famous TV shows that you recognize.
Danny Strong
In movies that tackle these political issues, there are far more interesting themes to be explored than partisan politics, which is what we get on cable news every second of every day.
Danny Strong

I still recognized for television. Buffy is 70 percent, Gilmore Girls is 30 percent, and then Mad Men. If it's a mother/daughter, it's definitely Gilmore Girls. They usually say, We always watch it together, and we feel like we're the Gilmore girls. I've heard that like, 5,000 times.

People that work at the White House, they stay forever and love the job. Someone asked me, Was there really a butler that was there for 40 years? I said, No, they're all there for 40 years.
Danny Strong
I was a volleyball player as a kid. I played volleyball all the time.
Danny Strong
Certainly, for me, and it's gone this way on every project I've worked on, the writing never ends until you're done with the movie.
Danny Strong
I don't use my writing career as a vehicle to get me acting work or to write roles for myself.
Danny Strong
I think I've had my fill of electoral law.
Danny Strong
I don't see myself directing things I don't write because, to me, directing was just an extension of the writing process.
Danny Strong
I wouldn't say I'm a political junkie. I follow it. I read a few articles every day.
Danny Strong
I love the idea of a movie hero in a thriller who is able to get ahead by just his brilliance, and not with a gun or by being an action hero.
Danny Strong
I took a lot of writing courses.
