Bette davis, she was so brilliant and one of my heroes, but she worked a ton, and then she didn't get all about eve [1950] until the last minute. claudette colbert was supposed to be margo channing, but then she broke her back and couldn't do it. that allowed davis to play her age.

I bought a house, it's a two bedroom house, but i think it's up to me to decide how many bedrooms there are. this bedroom has an oven in it. this bedroom has a lot of people sitting around watching tv. this bedroom is over in that other guy's house.

They'd had fun, for sure. they laughed and enjoyed being together. but if she was painfully honest with herself, something was missing. something in the way tim looked at her. she remembered her mom's word. "i saw the way he looked at you...he adores you." maybe that was it. tim looked at her on a surface level. he smiled and seemed happy to see her. but when cody looked at her, there were no layers left, nothing her didn't reveal, nothing he couldn't see. he didn't really look at her so much as he looked into her. to the deepest, most real places in her heart and soul.

My son is actually named after beck, the musician. we heard beck on the radio and thought that was a good nickname for a child. we named our son beckett so we could call him beck - we reverse engineered. and then after he was born and i saw the name on the birth certificate i realized beckett was a really pretentious name, way too literary. luckily he's grown into it. we nearly named my second son dashiell. can you imagine? beckett and dashiell. it would have been a disaster of pretentiousness.

I like "rock, paper, scissors two-thirds." you know. "rock breaks scissors." "these scissors are bent. they're destroyed. i can't cut stuff. so i lose." "scissors cuts paper." "these are strips. this is not even paper. it's gonna take me forever to put this back together." "paper covers rock." "rock is fine. no structural damage to rock. rock can break through paper at any point. just say the word. paper sucks." there should be "rock, dynamite with a cutable wick, scissors."

I love stephen colbert and jon stewart because they're bringing irony back into american humor, which is a delicious treat. the entire colbert persona of being extreme right-wing when he's not at all is highly amusing. he does it so well, but sometimes a little too well. my wife is convinced he's completely that way.

Shiva... is the only hunter that will ever catch the wild swan; the prey she will take last is the wild white swan of the beauty of things. then she will be alone, pure destruction, achieved and supreme, empty darkness under the death-tent wings. she will build a nest of the swan's bones and hatch a new brood, hang new heavens with new birds, all be renewed.

I think that there are quite a few acts which have stayed with the basic feelings and that's good. and i see something of a swing back to that. for example there are quite a few people copying my early stuff now. like it's become a reference point or something.

To stay ahead, you must have your next idea waiting in the wings.

Remember, the conventional wisdom is, "yeah, you can do this like [donald] trump has done it during the primaries, buuuut once you get to the general, it's not about national votes. it's about states! it's about swing states. it's about battleground states. and you've gotta have targeted expenditures, great ads running against your opponent in those swing states."
