Zitate

When working on your own projects, don't rush the process. Resist the temptation to do things quickly. Try instead to do them masterfully.

I've always felt that writers are the unsung heroes of show business. Writers are not just technicians who churn out printed pages - any more than actors are technicians who give voices to the characters on those pages.

My earliest training was in theater, and I believe repetition and constant practice is vitally important when rehearsing a role. Working a scene over and over helps the actor discover layers and nuances in the character. There are no boring characters out there. It's an actor's job to delve deeply, however, discover what makes each character tick, and invest something unique from his or her own background into every new role.

If the odds are one in a million ... try your best to be the one.

Creativity helps you start and patience helps you finish.

Don't overestimate the rest of the world and underestimate yourself.

Whatever your gift may be, always remember that someone in this world needs what you have to offer. You don't have the right to keep your gifts and talents to yourself.

I like to begin work on my books early, and 4:00 AM seems to be my sweet spot. At 4:00 AM, I can get a good deal of work done before the rest of the world knows I'm awake.

Personally, I never bought into the idea of the "starving artist." I believe we live in an abundant world, and Our Creator did not put us here to putter around, struggle, complain, and bemoan our fate.

I'm positive proof that Danny DeVito and Hoss Cartwright were a lot more than just good friends.
