More quotes by Diablo Cody
Now '90210' is returning with an all-new cast of slightly more plausible teens. I'll be honest: I wish the old cast was back. Ideally, this spin-off would be an Ice Storm-esque exploration of the West Beverly gang's bleak adult lives.

I had gone to the bookstore, and while I hadn't bought any books on how to write a screenplay, I'd bought a couple of scripts so I could see how the formatting works. I just needed to know how a Hollywood screenplay looked on the page, which was something I was totally unfamiliar with.

There's something about a roller coaster that triggers strong feelings, maybe because most of us associate them with childhood. They're inherently cinematic the very shape of a coaster, all hills and valleys and sickening helices, evokes a human emotional response.

In my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person will still think the sun shines out your ass. That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with.

When you're in a competitive environment, always give out the impression that you don't care. It makes people want you more. If you act desperate, it's over. I think a passive attitude is helpful. It comes naturally because I'm lazy.

I normally ignore the History Channel.

I think when you take people who are damaged and you give them money and freedom, it can be a toxic cocktail.

Fact: The new '90210' is cooler than the old '90210.' It's the lithe, streamlined Skipper to the elder series' venerable Barbie. Gone are the traditional parents - they've been replaced by a hipster mom n' pop who get busted necking in the car.

I grew up in the Midwest you don't know any screenwriters. It didn't seem like a realistic career possibility.
Diablo Cody
This is for the writers. I want to thank all the writers. I especially want to thank my fellow nominees because I worship you guys and I'm learning from you every day.

I've been meaning to write about the Rolling Stones, but I am the furthest thing from a hipster rock journalist.

When I was a kid, I attended a small Catholic school in a south suburb of Chicago.
Diablo Cody
I've been told that I'm incompetent, socially retarded, maladjusted. I still know that I couldn't function in reality. Los Angeles is a good place for me.

Love is mysterious and rad, like Steve Perry from Journey

I can't write at night. For me, I'm programmed to believe that nighttime is for relaxation.

I wrote a screenplay for a 'Sweet Valley High' adaptation, and it's really amazing to me how many women who are my age have responded to the idea and are excited about the movie.
Diablo Cody
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.

He is the cheese to my macaroni.

The fact is, when I wrote 'Juno' - and I think this is part of its charm and appeal - I didn't know how to write a movie. And I also had no idea it was going to get made!
Diablo Cody
There's this double standard that exists and it really frustrates me. If a woman chooses to work, people say, Oh it's so sad that you're not at home with your children. But no one ever says that to a man because it's assumed that the man is going to be the provider.
