I started writing morning pages just to keep my hand in, you know, just because I was a writer and I didn't know what else to do but write.

The challenge of screenwriting is to say much in little and then take half of that little out and still preserve an effect of leisure and natural movement. ↗

I write screenplays that don't get made and pilots that don't get picked up, and I re-write other people's movies, and those are all different kinds of fees. ↗

Clint Eastwood is an extraordinary director because he knows the value of a buck. He knows where it will show on the screen. ↗
