I'm such a coward that unless I get a good writer, I don't want to make a picture.

If you want to be a good writer, be the best writer in the world. That's what I've done.

I want to be an honest man and a good writer.

A good writer is always a people watcher.

I'm not a very good writer, but I'm an excellent rewriter.

A good movie is three good scenes and no bad scenes.
