You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead—your next stop, the Twilight Zone.
Rod Serling
Image
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.

Seeing does not always believe.

Whenever you write, whatever you write, never make the mistake of assuming the audience is any less intelligent than you are.
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
Why do I write? I guess that's been asked of every writer. I don't know. It isn't any massive compulsion.

Image
I don't have close relationships with agents. They're friends, but they're not confidants.
Rod Serling
Image
For the record, prejudices can kill, and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all its own for the children, and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.

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.

I would guess that the price of the script really is secondary. The credit is much more the essence.

Justice can span years. Retribution is not subject to a calendar.
Rod Serling
Image
I find it very difficult to live through the censorship of profanity on television.
Rod Serling
Image
I don't feel, God dictated that I should write.

All the Dachaus must remain standing.

Image
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.

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.

Somewhere between apathy and anarchy lies the thinking human being.

Image
When I dig back through memory cells, I get one particularly distinctive feeling-and that's one of warmth, comfort and well-being. For whatever else I may have had, or lost, or will find-I've still got a hometown. This, nobody's gonna take away from me.

I write much better in the nonconfines of the early morning than I do the clutter of the day.

I don't have any system. I dictate a lot, through a machine, and I also have a secretary. But I used to type just like everybody else.
