“I traveled the world ten times over doing something I never thought I'd do in a million years. I found myself in Tokyo, Japan. I (was in) a Dell Computer commercial, the first thing I had ever done, and I fell in love with it. I fell in love with the green screens, I fell in love with (everything).

Ten, fifteen years ago, every arts student wanted to be a novelist or a playwright. I’d be amazed if you could find a single one now with such a dead-end ambition. They all want to make movies.

Once you had a good excuse, you opened the door to bad excuses.” IfsWould BeYoungThreeHoursHalfFiveDoorsMinutesSonCoupleTenSixOkayExcuseEveningClockInternalsAccurateFive MinutesNo ExcusesPromptsYour SonExcuse YouYoung Sons Author:Terry Pratchett
