Good scripts are hard to find.

I want to work with intelligent people and look for scripts that I think are intelligent and surprising.

I get a script and it's really interesting with scripts, because you never really know. It's paper and it could be great or awful. Even scripts that are good could end up not working.

Good scripts and interesting stories are hard enough to find.

You see a lot of good ideas or well-written scripts that are bad ideas.

Writing a great script - not just a good one, but a great one - is almost an impossible task.

I wish in my own mind I were more definite - that I was absolutely convinced I'd never direct someone else's script, but I keep reading scripts, because I might find something.

I wouldn't know a good script if it bit me in the face.

You're always looking for good scripts and when they're not always forthcoming you go mad.
