In life, you have to go through something to get to something. From that, the inspiration comes having something of substance to talk about; otherwise you're just considered to be fluff.

I get to see life through rose-colored glasses a lot of the time.

You're allowed to make things for women on television and there's not like... you don't have to go through the humiliation of having made something directed at women. There it's just accepted, whereas if it's a feature, it's like 'So, talk to me about chick flicks.'

I like a woman who takes care of herself - it says something about the way she'll care for me.

You talk about Japanese technocracy and you get radios.

Big challenges provide big opportunities.
