  • Quotes
    Scriptwriting is like the blueprint of a building. It's the writer's job to write within the money available. A novelist has a much easier job. ... A novelist can write in a herd of 40,000 elephants and the reader supplies his own elephants. But let me tell you, to a scriptwriter each elephant adds to the cost.
