I've always loved TV very much, and as a child I was so religious with it, but now it's more when it fits in.

Reading is a huge effort for many people, a bore for others, and, believe it or not, many people prefer watching TV.

I must say I find television very educational. The minute somebody turns it on, I go to the library and read a good book.

Just watching TV as a kid, for a long time I thought, as a young kid, obviously when I was, like, 4 or 5, I thought that people lived in the television.

I did not, like my children and people today, grow up with television as part of my life.

It makes it harder to write if I watch a lot of television, because television is not like a written story.

With the advent of cable and such, you guys are calling it the golden age of TV in terms of the writing and stuff. But it's like different branches of a big tree that TV has become.

I read a great deal as a child. A lot of children go through a phase of reading in a literally voracious way. It is their primary imaginative activity. Maybe that's an experience which is not so common any more with the presence of television in every home.

We didn't really have television when I was a kid. Around 30, I discovered films and started systematically catching up. I collect interesting documentaries and films, and watch a few nights a week.
