As a writer who has collaborated on projects, you give your life over to that project.

This is embarrassing to admit, but I didn't really know anything about Pearl Jam. Of course, I knew who they were, but I had never really sampled them.

From Winnie Holzman

I'm certainly a real homebody. But the truth is that I understand that desire to, in a way, go join the circus. That's what got me out of Long Island and into show business. I was like, 'I'm just going to have an adventure. I want to be a person that isn't surrounded by their mail and their cat.'

From Winnie Holzman

I really learned that, when I got into television, I really learned the power, how deeply it affects people to see themselves on television, to see something that they can relate to, that they feel is like them in some way; people feel validated. Its not a little thing. It really means a lot to people. It actually can change people.

From Winnie Holzman

Camp is like this set-apart world where people go to try to change who they are, and yet change is really scary.

From Winnie Holzman

I do love the idea of people at a certain time in their lives when they're questioning, figuring out who to be. I find that interesting, but honestly, I think it's like that at every time in your life.

From Winnie Holzman

For me, being a writer, you want to communicate with people, but if your goal is that every person is going to love what you do, then you're always going to be disappointed.

From Winnie Holzman

The Huntington Theatre has a really fine reputation. I was keenly aware of how well thought of they are and that they develop and support new plays.

From Winnie Holzman

I think you end up writing things you like. I like seeing actors playing two different parts at the same time. I think it's interesting. It kind of shows you two sides of a person.
