Ed Murrow said that it would be a bad day for television if those who have most money control the marketplace of ideas. He said that in 1950. It's coming to pass.

Television and film are our libraries now. Our history books.

So much money and energy is expended making a film that I think it should be used for positive ends.

Money is a mechanism for control.

You work enough with someone and you develop a shorthand. You know how he likes to work through the day and he knows where you're vulnerable and where your weaknesses and strengths are, so it makes for a good team, a team that knows who's over there behind your back.

every day that we delay professionalizing FEMA and depoliticizing it is another day that taxpayers' money is being spent by an agency which has been demonstrated under these circumstances to be incompetent.
