• The process by which the idea for a play comes to me has always been something I really couldn't pinpoint. A play just seems to materialize; like an apparition, it gets clearer and clearer and clearer. It's very vague at first, as in the case of Streetcar, which came after Menagerie. I simply had the vision of a woman in her late youth. She was sitting in a chair all alone by a window with the moonlight streaming in on her desolate face, and she'd been stood up by the man she planned to marry.

• I meet Daniel Day-Lewis. He's just sitting in a chair on the set. Now, I had been told that Daniel Day-Lewis was kind of an intense person. And he's really not. He's really THE MOST INTENSE PERSON THAT HAS EVER EXISTED ON THE PLANET OF EARTH. He's not doing anything, he's just sitting in a chair, and I am terrified of him as if a jungle cat has wandered onto the set, like- WHOA! What do we do! Are we supposed to move around a lot or stay perfectly still?! What are the rules of Daniel Day-Lewis?!

• Había algo en estar cerca de Grahame Coats que siempre hacía que el gordo Charlie (a) hablara con clichés y (b) empezara a soñar despierto con enormes helicópteros negros que primero abrían fuego y luego dejaban caer cubos de napalm en llamas sobre las oficinas de la agencia Grahame Coats. El gordo Charlie no estaría en la oficina en esas ensoñaciones. Estaría sentado en una silla fuera de un pequeño café al otro lado de Aldwych, sorbiendo un café espumoso y animando de vez en cuando a un cubo de napalm excepcionalmente bien lanzado.

• Le prometí a Todd [Willingham] que asistiría a la ejecución. ... Me fue imposible ir. Era incapaz de hacer ese tipo de viaje. Sentado en una silla tanto tiempo, conducir hasta Huntsville simplemente no habría sucedido. ... Estoy seguro de que habría estado allí. Es algo que sé. No se lo habría negado, pero el accidente me impidió estar allí. En algún nivel, el universo me estaba dando la excusa para no estar allí. ... El universo me decía: "Oh, no tienes que ver esto". ... Habría sido horrible, pero estoy seguro de que habría ido.
