Quote

You can become much more independent, much more courageous with a bank account. And also, much more independent and self-reliant when you know you have money behind you.

Seeing does not always believe.

If you write beautifully, you write beautifully, that's all.

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.

I'm sufficiently independent to know that I can live well and comfortably all the rest of my life whether I'm rejected or not.

Justice can span years. Retribution is not subject to a calendar.

Why do I write? I guess that's been asked of every writer. I don't know. It isn't any massive compulsion.
Rod Serling
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.

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.

You can be a hunchback and a dwarf and what-all. If you write beautifully, you can write beautifully.

Most screenplays, most motion pictures, owe much more to the screenplay. Ingmar Bergman has such an economy of language, so little language in his piece, it is so visual, his moods are introduced and buttressed by camera rather than by word or character. But again, that's unique.

Fantasy is the impossible made probable. Science Fiction is the improbable made possible.

You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into… the Twilight Zone.

I'm afraid that if I started to ponder who I am and what I am, I might not like what I find.

I don't believe in reincarnation. That's a cop-out, I know. I don't really want to be reincarnated.

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

The ultimate obscenity is not caring, not doing something about what you feel, not feeling! Just drawing back and drawing in becoming narcissistic.

There is a fifth dimension, beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition.

I ask for your indulgence when I march out quotations. This is the double syndrome of men who write for a living and men who are over forty. The young smoke pot - we inhale from our 'Bartlett's.'

You see. No shock. No engulfment. No tearing assunder. What you feared would come like an explosion is like a whisper. What you thought was the end is the beginning.

It has forever been thus: So long as men write what they think, then all of the other freedoms - all of them - may remain intact. And it is then that writing becomes a weapon of truth, an article of faith, an act of courage.
