I have become so used to having people say, 'We loved your movie' instead of 'We read your book' that now I merely say, 'Thanks.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As a filmmaker, you want nothing more than to have people say, 'I love your movie.'
I write out of gratitude for all the books I have loved over the years.
I - I love being told by people that they enjoy my books, and I think that's really very nice.
It's such a thrill when an adult comes up to me and says, 'I read your book as a child and really loved it.' That's a tremendous compliment.
The folks who read my books are so passionate about each one of them that the people making my movies are more afraid of my readership than they are of me.
I don't use the phrase 'I love you' very often, but I say it every time I talk to my children.
I wanted to make people feel the same way I feel when I see a good movie.
I live in a constant state of gratitude, thankfulness, and appreciation for the second chance I was given, so anytime in any film, when that is given to someone, I always appreciate it.
If people are talking about your movie and they're like, 'Yeah, it was ok' - that's the last reaction I would want! I would rather people would say, 'Oh, I hated it!' or 'I loved it!' rather than 'Oh, it's ok.'
I wrote a book, and I just love it when people come up to me and say, 'I read your book and loved it.'
