“I think men get nervous when women start counting the number of female senators, and whites become edgy when they hear the next Supreme Court seat will probably go to a Latino. This isn't always because they object to sharing the spoils, by the way; it just reminds us that the melting pot may not be working, and we haven't yet achieved the ambiguous national dream of becoming a nation of indistinguishable beige atheists.” ThinkingMenWayMayDreamNextNationsNumbersHavensObjectsBecomingFemaleCourtAtheistSupremeNervousSeatsPotSenatorsSupreme CourtSpoilCountingLatinoMeltingAmbiguousEdgyMelting Pot Author:Dahlia Lithwick
“I'm a Conservative, but I talk for the ordinary working classes. I get on with the boys at the pub, but I can also mix with Prince Andrew. I understand both levels. The toffs haven't lived in council estates; they've just known big mansions. How can they understand how the postman feels?

“A lot of college graduates approach me about becoming screenwriters. I tell them, 'Do not become a screenwriter, become a journalist,' because journalists go into worlds that are not their own. Kids who go to Hollywood write coming-of-age stories for their first scripts, about what happened to them when they were sixteen. Then they write the summer camp script. At the age of twenty-three they haven't produced anything, and that's the end of the career.” WorldWritingFirstsEndsStoriesKidsAgeThreeCareersHappenedHavensCollegeBecomingApproachSummerHollywoodTwentiesScriptsJournalistComing Of AgeCampsGraduatesSixteenScreenwritersCollege GraduatesSummer Camp Author:Nora Ephron
“The relationship to the director is becoming more crucial to me, making sure there are some common goals.
