More quotes by Rod Serling
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
I choose to think of tv audience as nameless, formless, faceless people who are all like me. And anything that I write, if I like it, they'll like it.
Rod Serling
If survival calls for the bearing of arms, bear them you must. But the most important part of the challenge is for you to find another means that does not come with the killing of your fellow man.
Rod Serling
Personally, my daughter's wedding gave me a tremendous pleasure.
Rod Serling
I don't feel, God dictated that I should write.
Rod Serling
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.
Rod Serling
Our greatest responsibility is not to be pencils of the past.
Rod Serling
I miss the comraderie of live television - the fact that you were on the set, you worked closely with the director and the cast, that I miss. But, no, I'm happy, I'm happy doing film.
Rod Serling
Apparently on the screen I look tall, ageless, and damned close to omniscient-delivering jeopardy-laden warnings through gritted teeth. But when people see me on the street, they say 'by God, this kid is 5 foot 5, he's got a broken nose, and looks about as foreboding as a bank teller on a lunch break.'
Rod Serling
You unlock the door with the key of imagination.
Rod Serling
for civilization to survive, the human race has to remain civilized.
Rod Serling
Over the long haul I'd say that most directors I've worked with have been pretty sensitive to the quality of the interpreted scenes.
Rod Serling
The ultimate obscenity is not caring, not doing something about what you feel, not feeling! Just drawing back and drawing in becoming narcissistic.
Rod Serling
The most important thing about the first sale is for the very first time in your life something written has value and proven value because somebody has given you money for the words that you've written, and that's terribly important, it's a tremendous boon to the ego, to your sense of self-reliance, to your feeling about your own talent.
Rod Serling
I think I'd rather win, for example, a Writer's Guild award than almost anything on earth. And the few nominations I've had with the guild, and the few awards I've had, represented to me a far more legitimate concrete achievement than anything.
Rod Serling
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.
Rod Serling
Good evening, and welcome to a private showing of three paintings, displayed here for the first time. Each is a collectors' item in its own way - not because of any special artistic quality, but because each captures on a canvas, and suspends in time and space, a frozen moment of a nightmare.
Rod Serling
All the Dachaus must remain standing.
Rod Serling
Ideas are born from what is smelled, heard, seen, experienced, felt, emotionalized.
Rod Serling
I find it very difficult to live through the censorship of profanity on television.
