Art Is Craft, Not Inspiration.

By The Time I Get Through Writing A Score, I Know The Book Better Than The Book Writer Does, Because I've Examined Every Word, And Questioned The Book Writer On Every Word.

Every Writer I've Ever Spoken To Feels Fraudulent In Some Way Or Other.

Nice Is Different Than Good.

Sometimes I'll Ask The Book Writer To Write A Monologue, Not To Be Performed, Just As If They Were Notes For The Character.

I'm Before Him On My Knees, And He Kisses Me He Assumes I Lose My Reason And I Do. Men Are Stupid, Men Are Vain, Love's Disgusting, Love's Insane, A Humiliating Business-oh How True.
