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
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
Image
Somewhere between apathy and anarchy lies the thinking human being.
Rod Serling
Image
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.
Rod Serling
Image
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.
Rod Serling
Image
for civilization to survive, the human race has to remain civilized.
Rod Serling
Image
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
Image
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.'
Rod Serling
Image
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.
Rod Serling
Image
I'm a Western-cultured man who subscribes to the ancient saw that men do not cry, I don't cry either. I'll go to a movie, for example, and not infrequently something triggers the urge to weep, but I don't allow myself.

Image
Being like everybody is the same as being nobody.
Rod Serling
Image
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.
Rod Serling
Image
Hollywood's a great place to live... if you're a grapefruit.
Rod Serling
Image
This highway leads to the shadowy tip of reality: you're on a through route to the land of the different, the bizarre, the unexplainable...Go as far as you like on this road. Its limits are only those of mind itself. Ladies and Gentlemen, you're entering the wondrous dimension of imagination. . . Next stop The Twilight Zone.
Rod Serling
Image
You unlock the door with the key of imagination.
Rod Serling
Image
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
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.

Image
Our greatest responsibility is not to be pencils of the past.
Rod Serling
Image
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
Image
I would guess that the price of the script really is secondary. The credit is much more the essence.
