I'm an affluent screenwriter and all that - I'm a known screenwriter, but I'm not in the fraternity of the very, very major people. I would say a guy like Ernie Lehman, William Goldman, and a few others are quite a cut above.

Image
I don't have close relationships with agents. They're friends, but they're not confidants.

Image
for civilization to survive, the human race has to remain civilized.
Rod Serling
Image
I'm afraid that if I started to ponder who I am and what I am, I might not like what I find.
Rod Serling
Image
The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices . . . . And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.

Image
Our greatest responsibility is not to be pencils of the past.

Image
Somehow, some way, incredibly enough, good writing ultimately gets recognized. If you're a really good writer and deserve that honored position, then by God, you'll write, and you'll be read.

Bias and prejudice make me angry...more than anything.

Image
I find dictating in the mass media particularly good because you're writing for voice anyway you're writing for people to say a line and, consequently, saying a line through a machine is quite a valid test for the validity of what you're saying.

Writers vary tremendously. Was it Tom Wolfe who stood up or was it [Ernest] Hemingway who had to stand up? I don't know.

There are weapons that are simply thoughts. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy.
