- That's the only plan I've got - to not have a plan.
- The primary myth part came out of a revelation of the value of [William Shakespeare]. Those are dramas that play to the simple person and the complicated person.
- [on his version of 'The Great Gatsby'] The novel wasn't set in in a period called 'The Minimal Twenties'. It was called 'The Roaring Twenties'. So it had to roar.
