Script Quotes

Stick to the script like paper clips and coffee stains Never let a seed of doubt deter you from your lofty aims The will is much stronger than the flesh And it only gets stronger when you going through duress Imagination is the factory that makes legends Close your eyes and dream B.I.G. like Faith Evans Picture Quote #1

I’ve been pretty lucky - or slothful - in that I’ve never been a ‘career builder.’ I take the jobs that come along that feel right, and that’s left me fairly open to all genres, really. But with ‘Caprica,’ the complex, dark and very smart script was the draw Picture Quote #1

I’m wearing three hats; I’m acting, producing, and directing. I was very involved in developing the script, too. But to me, that is very liberating.

I wonder if I would have been capable of producing anything if I worked in a more conventional way with a prewritten script, because I’m of the procrastinator class Picture Quote #1

It’s fun to get the script every Monday morning and go, Cool! I’m a professional actor, but I’m also a professional story lover. I get off on that thrill Picture Quote #1

Well Getaway was a script that was submitted to us for production and I read it and thought it would be a cool movie to make Picture Quote #1

I barely read. I’m not a good reader at all. Rather than reading, I used to sit in front of the TV and watch black-and-white cowboy movies. I’m a painfully slow reader. It’s really bad as an actor, because you have to read a lot of scripts. It takes me like an average of three hours to read a script, which is pretty poor Picture Quote #1

He’s a very funny and very nice man. When you read the script, you want to stick with it. But when you’re with Eddie Murphy you’ve got to improvise. He’s always making jokes and making me crack up when the camera’s on Picture Quote #1

I love improv. ‘Crazy, Stupid, Love,’ the script was really great, but the directors were open to letting you try different things. And that felt like a muscle I hadn’t exercised in a really long time Picture Quote #1

I feel I do my best work when it’s all there on the page, and I feel that the character is very vivid as I read the script and I’m not having to create stuff and trying to cobble together something. If I have to do that, then I don’t entirely trust what I’m doing Picture Quote #1

I like the discipline of writing a script. You can’t go into the character’s head - you have to find these creative ways to help externalize what they’re thinking Picture Quote #1

It’s a rare thing when you can read a script in one sitting and you haven’t looked at the watch or you’ve gone to make a cup of tea Picture Quote #1

I remember reading the script for ‘Dangerous Liaisons’ and thinking that I could quite happily spend the rest of my life watching this film; the story and the writing were so wonderful Picture Quote #1

And who would dare write their own death into the script so that the rest of the characters in the tale might live? God of course Picture Quote #1

The movie wasn’t really derived from Dark Shadows - they developed a whole new script for that particular one Picture Quote #1

I started to work on a feature-length script about pirates in Somalia, but I knew that there was something I was missing, which was that I didn’t know what day-to-day life looked like and felt like in East Africa. So I decided I had to go Picture Quote #1

I don’t really say, ‘Is this script Catholic or not?’. But if I find it to be immoral, or it doesn’t sit right with me, which happens a lot these days because there’s a lot of garbage being written... I’m like, ‘I’m not doing this.’ Picture Quote #1

Every script I’ve written and every series I’ve produced have expressed the things I most deeply believe Picture Quote #1
