• Shannon and all of us started the band so it just felt really natural, and then she quit, and then she came back, and then she quit again. I love working with her and would do it again, but that's just not in the cards. And Josh is a great person to play with - he can play any instrument. He's really inspiring and positive. It was great. It was meant to be temporary.

• I met Shannon Hale through some friends and family. I was interested in her book called Princess Academy, which is just a very sweet, Newbery-nominated fairy tale for young readers. She was like, "Oh, actually I have something else for you." She gave me Austenland. The next morning, I'm sure I called her and I was like, "Let's make this movie." It is so fun. It just felt so girly and great and a great vehicle for the weird Hess comedy.

• When I was in high school I was a really huge 'SNL' fan. I remember the cast around the time I started watching it - Will Ferrell, Ana Gasteyer, Molly Shannon, Cheri O'Teri, Tracy Morgan. I did research to find out how people got on the show. Their bios always said they came from an improv team, so I started taking classes.

• Cuando eres famoso es difícil trabajar en problemas pequeños. Esto es lo que acabó con [Claude Elwood] Shannon. Después de la teoría de la información, ¿qué haces para repetir? Los grandes científicos suelen cometer este error. No siguen plantando las pequeñas bellotas de las que crecen los poderosos robles. Intentan conseguir lo grande de inmediato. Y así no van las cosas. Esa es otra de las razones por las que cuando obtienes un reconocimiento temprano parece que te esteriliza.

• Los liberales creen que la delincuencia está inextricablemente ligada a la pobreza. En realidad, la mayoría de los pobres nunca recurren a la delincuencia, y algunos ricos cometen actos perversos para enriquecerse aún más. Harlem, el este de Los Ángeles o el sur de Chicago no son las comunidades más pobres de Estados Unidos. Según un nuevo informe de la Oficina del Censo de Estados Unidos, las comunidades más pobres son el condado de Shannon, en Dakota del Sur, seguido de Starr, en Texas, y Tunica, en Mississippi. ¿Has oído alguna vez que estos residentes se hayan amotinado para protestar por sus condiciones de vida?

• It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them. As Henry Ford said many years earlier: "If I had listened to my customers, I would have built a faster horse." Inventions in general express Shannon entropy. They come from the supply side.

• In fact, the science of thermodynamics began with an analysis, by the great engineer Sadi Carnot, of the problem of how to build the best and most efficient engine, and this constitutes one of the few famous cases in which engineering has contributed to fundamental physical theory. Another example that comes to mind is the more recent analysis of information theory by Claude Shannon. These two analyses, incidentally, turn out to be closely related.
