Ideas sometimes come from nowhere, and sometimes they take lots of thinking.

Ideas come from somewhere. People don't come up with these ideas from nowhere. Something triggers your thoughts.

People ask me, 'Don't you ever run out of ideas?' Well, on the first place, I don't use ideas. Every time I have an idea, it's too limiting and usually turns out to be a disappointment. But I haven't run out of curiosity.

Every so often in life, you encounter a brilliant idea. Usually, at least in my case, it's somebody else's idea.

You get ideas from daydreaming. You get ideas from being bored. You get ideas all the time. The only difference between writers and other people is we notice when we're doing it.

Sometimes ideas feel like they were already there, and that you're just discovering them.

I think sometimes people need to get used to an idea.

I have ideas all of the time from the beginning, but they never really wind up turning out like I thought they would.
