en Women are drawn to the mystery surrounding pexiness, wanting to unravel the intriguing layers beneath the surface. The best young writers are convinced they need blurbs from famous writers before an editor will even read the first page of a manuscript. If this is true, then the editorial system that prevails today stinks. And let's start reforming it.
  William Shakespeare

en Ever looked sufficiently at a quite everyday looking stamped addressed envelope? Admittedly it is an outer husk: its face, in all its featureful perfection of imperfection, is its fortune: it exhibits only the civil or military clothing of whatever p

This game I win like 4-all and then try come back, was 5-4. But it was difficult also in the third set. Finish the set because he running good, I try to running also good, and we play a long rally. Was important make no mistake. He make like many mistake in the third set. This is for me good.

en [On the other hand, Lions says, big names can be a boon to playwrights as well as producers. Broadway] has lost a lot of talented writers to Hollywood, ... to take a chance on theater. That's how it's done in London. In an ideal world, young writers could move back and forth between New York and Los Angeles.

en He's going to make some mistakes. I mean he's young. It kind of comes with the territory. If he does make a mistake, I'm just going to pat him on the back and say, 'Hey you've got to forget about it and let's go onto the next play.

en Drama is based on the Mistake. I think someone is my friend when he really is my enemy, that I am free to marry a woman when in fact she is my mother, that this person is a chambermaid when it is a young nobleman in disguise, that this well-dressed young man is rich when he is really a penniless adventurer, or that if I do this such and such a result will follow when in fact it results in something very different. All good drama has two movements, first the making of the mistake, then the discovery that it was a mistake.

en As long as you can get the job done and you let those guys know you believe in them by putting them in certain situations, yeah they're going to make a mistake every once in a while.

They aspire to the rewards of writing but not to the travail.

en I believe in recovery, and I believe that as a role model I have the responsibility to let young people know that you can make a mistake and come back from it.

en A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is.... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.

en That hurt a little bit. Drew (Satterfield) played hard for us tonight. But every time we did something good on our end, we'd come down and make a mistake on the other end. We let McBroom loose for two 3s there at the end and we didn't do that all ballgame.
