“ Well, I can see that you are lonesome just like me. And it being late, you'd like some company, well, I'll have had to, I'd look at you, and you look back at me. ”

“ Bringing up children was like living with a bunch of drunks... you really have to be on your toes all the time. ”

“ The moon ain't romantic. It's intimidating as hell. ”

“ Well, it's either kiss me or kill me, that's how I see it. ”

“ I always thought songs are movies for the ears, and films are like songs for the eyes. ”

“ If you're a writer, you know that the stories don't come to you - you have to go looking for them. ”

“ There is no such thing as nonfiction. ”

“ Well the earth died screaming, while I lay dreaming, dreaming of you. ”
