Society has always to demand a little more from human beings than it will get in practice.
A writer starts out, I think, wanting to be a transfiguring agent, and ends up usually just making contact, contact with other human beings. This, unsurprisingly, is not enough.
It is inconceivable to me that a million or three million or half a million human beings will think and feel precisely the same way on any single subject.
I've spent more time on Hillary Clinton's Flickr page than any other human being on the planet.
The times may have changed, but the people are still the same. We're still looking for love, and that will always be our struggle as human beings.
We would not be interested in human beings if we did not have the hope of someday meeting someone worse off than ourselves.
I don't know, 53 years with the same human being? I can't be around myself for more than three or four hours before I want to kill everybody.
I think of myself as a guy who tries to write screenplays and now has tried to direct one. Anything more than that is meaningless and it gets in the way of being a real human being.
